(More customer reviews)A good chef's knife is fine for cutting a tomato in half, or for cutting those halves into wedges.It's also possible to slice a tomato with a sharp chef's knife - but one has to be careful when starting each cut, as the curve of the tomato requires a slightly different angle for starting each slice.That means slicing a tomato with a chef's knife will be a lot slower than slicing, say, a cucumber.
Enter the tomato knife.The serrations initiate the cut where the edge is placed whatever the angle between blade and skin; the legendary sharpness of the Wusthof blade then completes the slice with ease.A meal's worth of tomatoes can be reduced to slices in a jiffy - provided you're right handed, since the serrations are on the right side of the blade.
This isn't just any tomato knife, though.This tomato knife is from Wusthof's premium Culinar line.In addition to having Wusthof's high carbon stainless blade with a full length tang, it also has the Culinar line's ergonomic 18/10 stainless steel handle.When one picks up the knife, the handle feels like it molds itself to one's hand, making it a joy to use.Before I got this knife, I always served tomatoes in wedges; now I look for excuses to slice them.
The price does match the premium quality, though.Whether this knife is worth that price depends on how many tomatoes you slice - but if you do buy it, you may find your tomato consumption going way up!
