Can I put Wusthof knives dishwasher?

It is generally better to wash Wusthof knives by hand rather than put them in a dishwasher. Dishwasher cycles expose knives to heat, detergent, and movement against other items, which can affect the blade and handle over time. Hand washing is faster than many people expect: rinse the knife soon after use, clean it with mild soap, and dry it immediately. This simple routine helps preserve the edge and keeps the handle in better condition. If you want your knife to last and perform well, careful hand cleaning is the safer everyday choice. Storing the knife properly after washing is also important, because protection does not end at the sink.
