Further manufacturer information:
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 endlessly sharp blades in a timeless design. Before sharpening, every blade is laser-guided using Wüsthof's patented PEtec process. This gives the best edge angle for the best possible cutting sharpness. The 58 HRC, one-piece forged stainless X50CrMoV15 steel blade runs through the handle, is extremely sharp and stays that way for a very long time. The special construction makes cutting, slicing, chopping and portioning easier. Thanks to their special shape, the knives are well balanced and their ergonomic handle is comfortable to grip. The handle panels are made of a special synthetic material and are permanently triple-riveted, without joints, making them completely hygienic and easy to handle. The end of the handle is decorated with a laser-engraved Wüsthof logo. Recommended for everyday, effortless kitchen use by home cooks and professional chefs alike. What's more, Classic Ikon is a tool used by the German National Culinary Team.
The Wüsthof Classic Ikon series has NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) certification for public health and food safety.
• Double bolster geometry - Balance and ergonomics - the special geometry with a double bolster ensures balanced handling. The knife therefore fits well in the hand and guarantees even cutting.
• Half bolster - Thanks to the thinner support construction of the knife, it is lighter. This allows energy-efficient work. The design also allows the entire blade to be used and resharpened.
• Wavy edge - The wavy edge formed on the inside produces a clean cut and is suitable for large fruits, vegetables or roasts. The wide, long blade is ideally suited to bread and cakes.
• Precision double-serrated edge - The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts just as easily as soft bread, or large fruits such as pumpkin. It stays sharp for longer and requires less effort when cutting. The difference compared with a traditional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
• Paring knife - The practical knife with a short, curved cutting edge is particularly useful for peeling and cleaning round fruits and vegetables. Valuable vitamins remain intact thanks to the precision blade, which reduces food waste.
• Nakiri - This knife has an exceptionally thin, Asian-style blade and is extremely sharp, with a 20° edge angle. The fluting ensures that thin or soft foods are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick to it.
