Mein Messer

by soulveil , Nov 23 '01
Pros: Very fine knives, sharp and great to hold
Cons: Expensive
As it is part of my nature, when looking for knives for our new house I wanted one of the best, if not THE best set of knives a person could buy. They don't say you get what you pay for, for no reason. After over a year of living with my then...

I will never buy anything else!

by sugarprincess , Feb 01 '01
Pros: Feel, sharpness
Cons: Expensive
Back when I didn't know much about knives and was living at home, I thought my mom's knives were just fine (I don't think they even had a brand name--they were just knives). When I graduated from college, she got me a set of Chicago Cutlery that seemed...

Sharper than a tack

by cdwilli1 , Jul 20 '00
Pros: Sharp sharp sharp, great to hold and use.
Cons: Little pricey, but worth it.
I read an article on Wusthof knives some time ago where the writer claimed that it was possible to tell a serious home chef as they always have at least one Wusthof knife. I thought that was a bit pretentious and probably an overstatement; I am a...

Affordable Excellence

by harveyny Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Aug 08 '00
Pros: Looks, Feel, Ability to hold an edge
Cons: Price
I cook primarily Oriental dishes, which means that there is a lot of cutting. While the Oriental cleaver can manage the job, it is a crude tool in comparison with the Wusthof-Trident Grand Prix knives. When I started to shop for some kitchen knives, I...

Best Wedding Gift We Got

by pbyaeger Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jun 17 '00
Pros: great feel, solid weight, sharp
Cons: not all styles available in Grand Prix style
Before I registered for my Wusthof Grand Prix knives at
Williams Sonoma, I had ordinary department store knives.
They weren't something I had to think about--and when one
dulled or warped, I threw it out.

So, when I saw the...

A cut above the rest!

by genestra , Mar 15 '00
Pros: Everything about these knives are a Pro
Cons: None
After using these knives for the first time in my Hotels Kitchen I had to go out and go Overboard and get every last piece that I could get my hands on.

I am a very serious cook and demand high riggers from all my tools, especially my...

Unrivaled Excellence

by thordum , Feb 03 '01
Pros: The grip and feel of the knife are unrivaled
Cons: It can be a pricey, but worthwhile, investment
Working in a professional kitchen almost forces one to invest in a quality set of knives. So when I went to a local store to invest in such a set, I was barraged with a variety of types. Ultimately, it was this set of knives that I fell in love with...

The Best Investment

by gleaner , Nov 28 '00
Pros: excellent blade and balance, comfortable grip
Cons: expensive (but they're worth it)
These knives are fantastic! I've gone from the cheap knives inherited from my childhood home, to the moderately good Chicago Cutlery of my young adulthood, to the ultimate in chopping, slicing and paring--Wusthof Trident Grand Prix. Like everyone else...

The Best Kitchen Investment

by zortec , Nov 26 '01
Pros: Razor sharp, well balanced
Cons: Slightly expensive (but worth every cent)
I was unhappy with the cheap cutlery we had in our kitchen and knew that good quality knives would make a world of difference, so I did some research to find a set of knives that would make prep work less of a chore and last forever. I found just what I...

Now thats a knife....

by crane1585 , Oct 11 '00
Pros: perfection. no need for another knife
Cons: you pay for what you get but get what you pay for
More than likely if you're reading this review, you're interested in cooking. In my own opinion, I don't think anybody can be a great chef without at least trying out a Wusthof, for in every product or tool there are certain standards to go buy. In...

Well-balanced knives with weight behind them.

by joleenca , Feb 17 '01
Pros: excellent balance, heavy weight, sharp blades
Cons: some people do not like the weight
When I was looking for a knife set after college, I wanted to get one that would last a long time. I read several reviews, including Consumer Reports, and narrowed my search to Henkels and Wusthof. However, many sources disagreed between which models...

Slice and Dice, Baby!

by noahpoah , Feb 21 '00
Pros: Cuts through anything! ANYTHING!
Cons: easy to dust for fingerprints
Let me just say, It's not called Grand Prix for nothing! These things'll cut throught anything, and I do mean anything! Skin? You bet! Meaty Muscle? And how! Gristle? Didn't think twice! Bone? With nary a squeal!

You can come at it...

Superior Balance and Feel

by cesquire , Aug 18 '00
Pros: great balance and comfortable handling
Cons: individual preferences might steer you somewhere else, somewhat high price to relatively good for the quality
All of the best kitchen knives are generally percieved to come from Solingen Germany, and the Wustof Trident Grand Prix is no exception.

The quality that sets these knives aside from the others is their superior balance, feel, and handling....

Your Best Bet

by 090973 , Dec 12 '00
Pros: High Quality Tools
Cons: a bit pricier than your run of the mill knives
As a chef and former student of the CIA, I use my knives quite a bit. In the past I have worked with Henkels, F Dick and Chicago Cutlery to name a few, but the Wustof Trident Grand Prix is BY FAR the best set I have ever owned.

The sleek...

Investment Grade.

by cmullins70 , Jun 25 '00
Pros: Single piece blade, keen edge
Cons: Price
I'm not a big cook. She's the gourmand. So why did I go out and spend this kind of money on a set of knives? Simple - I was looking for an "over-the-top" gift. Cut to me, in the kitchen, watching one of these knives "fall through" a...
