Further manufacturer information:
For processing fish, meat and fruit: while boning knives or cleavers are better suited to rougher tasks, especially with meat, the fillet knife with its flexible blade is particularly suited to thin filleting. Precise cutting of meat, separating fish fillet from the skin or peeling fruit are the special abilities of the fillet knife.

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 endlessly sharp blade in a timeless design. Before sharpening, every blade is laser-sharpened using Wüsthof's patented PEtec process, so the optimal edge angle delivers the best possible cutting sharpness. The 58 HRC stainless X50CrMoV15 steel blade, forged from a single piece, runs through the handle, stays extremely sharp and remains so 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 handles sit comfortably in the hand. The handle panels are made of a special synthetic material and riveted triple-times without joins, making them completely hygienic and easy to handle. The handle end is decorated with a laser-engraved Wüsthof logo. Recommended for everyday, effortless kitchen use by home cooks and professional chefs alike. Moreover, Classic Ikon is a tool used by the German National Culinary Team. The Wüsthof Classic Ikon series holds 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 sits well in the hand and guarantees even cutting.
• Half bolster – thanks to the thinner bolster construction, the knife is lighter. This allows energy-saving work. The design also allows use of the full blade and resharpening.
• Wavy edge – the inner wavy edge gives clean cuts and is suitable for large fruit, vegetables or roasts. With its wide, long blade it is also excellent for bread and cakes.
• Precision double-serrated edge – the bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts as easily as soft bread, or large fruit such as pumpkin. It stays sharp longer and requires less effort. The difference compared with a conventional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
• Paring knife – this practical knife with a short, curved cutting edge is particularly useful for peeling and trimming round fruit and vegetables. Vitamins remain intact thanks to the precision blade, which also 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 release more easily from the blade during use and do not stick.
