Rating: - Wustof Classic... worth the money
As a home user, I must say that I'm quite pleased with my purchase of this knife in the Classic line. Had a few opportunities to use this prepping chicken already, and I've gotta say that it's loads easier to work with than the garbage knives I had at my disposal previous.
Rating: - great for heavy use
I am a sous chef and I use this knife to break down everything from shell steak to veal chops, and I love it. I also like the flexibility of the blade. It holds an edge very well, with minimum touch ups. Overall I am very happy with the Wusthof line.
Edit 4/6/05: Still using it, still like new, almost 3 years of almost daily use later. Can't beat Wusthof!
