Wusthof Amici

The Wusthof Amici collection is inspired by Italy. Each knife pays homage to the collaboration with Castello di Serragiumenta, a 16th-century castle in the Calabrian countryside. 

Inspired by the abundant sunshine and farmland of Calabria, Italy, Wusthof Amici embodies "la dolce vita": the joy of living. The Amici range combines iconic precision-forged knives with handles of uniquely grained Calabrian olive wood, combining modern craftsmanship with Italian design sensibilities to create an ideal knife for preparing and sharing meals. Benvenuti Amici.

Each Amici knife is original thanks to the distinct grain of the olive wood handles. The Calabrian olive tree grows slowly, with extremely durable wood that is naturally water-repellent and antibacterial. The sustainably sourced wood comes mainly from olive trees that bear little to no fruit due to their advanced age.
