A Wusthof Classic refers to a product line of knives from the Wusthof knife-maker. They are a German-based company that produces high quality products. The classic knives are made from a traditional polypropylene handle.
Wusthof knives can be read up on at the following site: www.wusthof.com/desktopdefault.aspx which offers a comprehensive insight into the history and tradition of such knives. Further info and purchase is available from amazon.
Generally, a Wusthof Classic knife set consists of eight pieces per set. You should have eight knives in the kit for a complete collection of the set.
One can purchase a Wusthof bread knife from the Amazon website. Surprisingly Macy's has the knives almost $70.00 cheaper than Amazon. But the cheapest place by far is the Chefs Catalog website for under $30.00.
One can purchase a Wusthof Chef Knife at Crate and Barrel, Cutlery and More and MetroKitchen. Prices for different collections of knives will vary based on size and number of knives of the desired purchase.
Wusthof Knives are renowned for their sharpness and they are forged from the very best steel. The knives are actually sharpened each by hand to be as sharp as can be for the chef or the family cook.
A Wusthof knife block is a set of kitchen knives contained safely in a wooden block. The family owned German company has been producing kitchen knives since 1814 and the quality of their workmanship is always of the highest order.
A Wusthof block is used to store kitchen knives. They come in a variety of sizes, including 9-knife, 17-knife, and 25-knife. They make a great gift, as they also come with a built in sharpener.
The Wusthof Classic Knife is a brand of knifes which have a great performance and they feature a triple riveted design. Also, these knifes are germ-resistant and have a perfect and elegant design. They look great in every kitchen.
The Wusthof's 6 inch cutting knife costs $125 when it's not on sale. All of the knives from this brand are pretty expensive and can end up costing a lot for the entire collection.
According to the research I have done they are a tad bit over priced unless you consider over 400 dollars for a set of knives a good price. In conclusion my opinion it is expensive but up to you.
It doesn't look like there are schools that teach you how to use that knife set. Check with the store you bought the knife set from. Sometimes they offer free in-store classes.
