Designed to slice through a heaping burger with ease, the knife boasts a unique blade shape that’s perfect for all burger necessities: a serrated section towards the bolster and straight-edged along the center.

You might be asking, “Can’t I just use two separate knives for the same effect?” Sure you can, but not quite. Slicing a massive burger into smaller portions is next to impossible without making a mess or mangling your bun to shreds. Wüsthof’s innovative creation makes burger slicing clean and easy.

And, to make it worth your while, the knives are durable and versatile enough to serve other purposes in the kitchen. With multiple cuts on each blade, it’s a great culinary companion for spreading butter on toast or pancakes in the morning, cutting an equally loaded cold-cut for lunch, or a slicing a tender and juicy sirloin steak for supper. The knives are also manufactured with a high-carbon stainless steel, which both looks great and ensures the knifes longevity in the kitchen.

Available in sets of four, the Wusthof Gourmet Burger Knife is priced at $99.95.
