WMF Touch 2-Piece Kitchen Knife Set — Chef's Knife 20 cm & Utility Knife 9 cm | Special Blade Steel | Black
The WMF Touch 2-Piece Kitchen Knife Set in Black is a sleek, modern and high-performing pair of kitchen knives that brings WMF's 170-year tradition of German blade craftsmanship into one of the most stylish and practical knife sets available for the everyday home kitchen. The set contains two essential knives that together cover the full spectrum of daily food preparation: a versatile 20cm chef's knife and a precision 9cm utility knife — each crafted from high-quality rust-free, acid-resistant special blade steel with a distinctive black non-stick coating that is as functional as it is visually striking. The chef's knife is the true all-rounder of the set — engineered to handle the broadest possible range of cutting tasks with power, precision and effortless ease. From chopping onions, garlic and herbs to slicing raw meat, breaking down whole chickens, dicing root vegetables and cutting through crusty bread, the 20cm blade performs every task with the confidence and authority of a professional kitchen knife. The longer blade length provides the momentum and sweep needed for smooth, single-stroke cuts through larger ingredients, while the weight and balance of the knife — achieved through the precise relationship between blade length, blade thickness and handle weight — ensures that it never feels heavy or fatiguing in the hand, even during extended food preparation sessions.
The 9cm utility knife is the detail knife of the set — smaller, lighter and more nimble than the chef's knife, it excels at all the precision work that requires a shorter, more controllable blade. Peeling and trimming vegetables, segmenting citrus fruits, mincing shallots and garlic, deveining prawns, trimming fat from meat, slicing cheese and deli meats and handling all the fine detail work that the larger chef's knife is too broad for — the utility knife handles all of these tasks with exceptional precision and control. Together, the chef's knife and the utility knife form a genuinely complete kitchen cutting pair that covers every cutting need from the largest to the finest without any overlap or redundancy, making this 2-piece set a smarter and more practical choice than many larger knife block sets that contain knives you rarely or never use. The hardened blades of both knives are engineered to maintain their razor-sharp cutting edge significantly longer than ordinary stainless steel knives, delivering consistent cutting performance that remains reliable and satisfying day after day.
The black non-stick coating on both blades serves multiple important functions beyond its striking visual impact. It actively prevents food from sticking to the blade surface during cutting — wet, starchy and sticky ingredients such as potatoes, bread, cheese, cucumber and raw fish slide cleanly off the blade without any dragging, sticking or resistance, making cutting faster, cleaner and more hygienic. The coating also provides an additional layer of corrosion resistance, protecting the special blade steel from moisture and food acids during use and storage. Both knives come with practical individual blade sleeves — protective covers that slide over the blade for safe, space-saving storage in any kitchen drawer without any risk of accidental contact with the sharp cutting edge. The ergonomic black plastic handles are shaped to fit naturally and comfortably in the hand for both right-handed and left-handed users, providing a non-slip, secure grip that remains safe and controlled even when hands are wet or greasy. Hand washing is recommended to preserve the longevity and performance of the non-stick blade coating.
