Pros

  • +Reputation for being 'really, really good'
  • +Felt best in hand
  • +Nice brand
  • +Most series are forged

Cons

  • Not preferred over victorinox fibrox by commenter
  • Gourmet series is stamped
  • Can take more pressure for some tasks (e.g., potatoes, cabbage, apples)
Wusthof is already a “nice” brand. Other than their Gourmet series, which are stamped knives, all of their other knives are forged.
