Current content[edit]

No question Wüsthof makes some excellent knives (I own one), but this article has taken on ad-like qualities. I've tried to mitigate them somewhat, removing a few blatant brochureisms, but I think more work is needed. Haikupoet 18:48, 31 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed - have tagged with , although I've seen plenty worse FlagSteward 11:19, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New Line[edit]

Wusthof has a new line called the Classic Ikon. It has a slightly different shaped handle with an end cap. The bolster doesn't go down to the edge of the blade to make sharpening the full length of the blade easier. MikeSims (talk) 07:24, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Wusthof Logo.jpg[edit]

Image:Wusthof Logo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

X50 Cr Mo WV15?[edit]

I have a few Wusthof knives with "X50 Cr Mo WV15" on the blades rather than "X50 Cr Mo V15". The blades seem to be harder and stiffer than my other Wusthof knives, as might be expected if there is tungsten in the alloy. These knives are early steak knives from the Culinar line; my later Culinar kitchen knives have the more standard X50 Cr Mo V15. Does anyone know whether the tungsten alloy was something used for early Culinar blades tht was later dropped, or whether it is still used in Culinar steak knives?
