Warranty Information
WÜSTHOF knives carry a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects.
Start a Warranty Claim
1. Prepare Your Knives for Shipping
Take clear photos of all knives you are sending for warranty evaluation and keep these images until your claim is resolved. Carefully wrap each knife in several layers of newspaper or bubble wrap and pack them in a sturdy cardboard box to protect both the knives and package handlers. Do not send any knives in an envelope or apply tape directly to the blades of your knife.
2. Print & Complete Customer Return Form
Fill out the Customer Return Form and include it with your shipment. This information is required to process your warranty claim. All warranty claim forms must include a valid email address in order to be processed.
Do not send personal items with your knives, as these will not be returned. This includes blade guards, towels, and any other items used for protection. WÜSTHOF is not responsible for any loss or damage in transit to our facility, so shipping insurance is recommended, at your discretion.
3. Address & Send Shipment
Ask your shipping carrier to provide you with a tracking number. Retain the tracking number until your claim is finalized, not simply until the package shows delivered.
