I used Wusthof Grand Prix for many years, but switched to (K-)Sabatier. It wasn't about the quality of the Wusthof - as you say, it is excellent - I just found the shape of the French style blade more to my liking and better suited to my prep style. Long and triangular for more of a slicing motion, compared to rounded (on the German blade) for more of a rocking motion.

Anyone using full carbon ?
