Wüsthof Classic Ikon series

Extreme precision with perfect ergonomics. Black and elegant. Agile and robust. The Classic Ikon series combines perfect ergonomics, excellent balance and an exceptionally sharp blade in a timeless design. Before honing, every blade is laser-sharpened using Wüsthof's patented PEtec process, so the optimum edge angle delivers the best possible cutting sharpness. The 58 HRC blade, forged from a single piece of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, runs through the full length of the handle, is extremely sharp and stays that way for a very long time. The special design makes cutting, slicing, chopping and portioning easier. Thanks to their special shape, the knives are well balanced and their ergonomic handles are comfortable to hold. The handle scales are made of a special synthetic material and are durably triple-riveted without joints, making them completely hygienic and easy to care for. The handle end is decorated with a laser-engraved Wüsthof logo. Recommended for effortless everyday kitchen use by home cooks and professional chefs alike. What is more, Classic Ikon is the knife used by the German National Culinary Team. The Wüsthof Classic Ikon series is certified by NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) for public health and food safety.

• Double bolster geometry: balance and ergonomics. The special geometry with a double bolster ensures balanced handling, so the knife fits the hand well and guarantees even cutting.
• Half bolster: the slimmer bolster construction makes the knife lighter, allowing less tiring work. The design also allows the full length of the blade to be used and resharpened.
• Precision double-serrated edge: the bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts as easily as soft bread or large fruit and vegetables such as pumpkin. It stays sharp longer and needs less effort when cutting. The difference compared with a conventional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
