The sharp, serrated blade of this knife cuts tomato and other fruit skins perfectly without squashing. The knife also works beautifully as a bar companion for cutting lemon wedges and for spearing cocktail onions or olives with its forked tip. Because of its portability, this tomato knife is also suitable for picnic and other outdoor food cutting. Part of the Classic series, this knife represents two centuries of unexcelled Wüsthof craftsmanship. Like other cutlery in the series, it's hand-forged from a single piece of stainless steel for maximum strength; the hand-polished blade is exactingly calibrated to be hard enough to resist dulling yet soft enough to take a keen edge when it's honed or sharpened. Dishwasher-safe and with a traditionally shaped, ergonomically designed handle that is triple-riveted for durability, this knife brings a guaranteed lifetime of low-maintenance cutting to its owners. --Arthur Boehm

This knife is incredibly sharp. I didn't think that I would like a speciality knife, but this is very versitile. I like the "forks" on the tip to pick up the tomato slices, or pickles or onions. Very smooth cutting, but be careful it is very sharp.

You don't have to be a gourmet cook or have your own TV show to find good use for this knife. Anyone who has ever needed to make neat slices of ripe tomato in a hurry and ended up wishing that he or she had sharpened all the knives _yesterday_ is a person who will appreciate the ease with which this knife does the job. Anybody who has ever resorted to slicing tomatoes and/or fingers with a bread knife is going to love this knife.
It's use is not limited to tomatoes; I use my knives for whatever I please, and I use this one for slicing all sorts of foods that are too soft for easy even cutting. Ripe peaches, soft cheeses--that sort of thing; it's not big enough and it's too sharp to be really safe as a bread knife.
If you are peeling the tomatoes, though, you may want a straight-edged paring knife of some sort; this serrated blade doesn't do the neatest job on that part unless you make a work of art out of it. It doesn't bother me, because I never peel tomatoes unless I'm cooking them.
I know it's heresy and not classy at all, but I put it in the dishwasher. I lay it by itself on the top rack, so that nothing will knock against it; I wash all my good knives that way, and some of them are over twenty years old and still look good and hold an edge, so why not? Life's too short to spend it hand washing things that are clearly said to be dishwasher safe.

While this is a good knife, I would normally of given it 4 stars, the single bevel grind on this knife basically ruins any advantage this knife has for the left handed person.
Amazing how much difference it really makes!! July 8, 2007

I always thought a knife was a just a knife. But this tomato kinfe really does make cutting tomatoes a pleasure. No more wondering if the slices will come out nice. Works nice on mozzarella too!
