Forged luxury. Every knife has a unique pattern. Sharp blade and premium wood.
With their special features, the Ikon series knives are the highlight of the holidays. The selected (sustainably grown) African grenadilla (Dalbergia melanoxylon) handle, permanently riveted, is striking and every piece has a unique pattern. Thanks to the special wood's water-resistant and hygienic properties, it is particularly suitable for kitchen use. At the same time, the naturally warm-feeling, ergonomically shaped handle is a pleasure to hold and use. The unique geometry with double bolster fits well in the hand, guarantees optimal balance and ensures even cutting, even over longer periods. Thanks to the half bolster the knife is lighter, which enables energy-efficient work. The design also allows full use and sharpening of the blade. The blade is forged from a single piece of high-quality stainless X50CrMoV15 steel, with a 29° edge angle, and is characterised by high robustness and durability. The blade runs through the full handle (full tang). The final hand finishing by Wüsthof's experienced specialists provides extraordinary sharpness and quick, easy cutting.
• Double bolster geometry – Balance and ergonomics – the special geometry with double bolster ensures balanced handling. The knife fits well in the hand and guarantees even cutting.
• Half bolster – Thanks to the thinner bolster construction, the knife is lighter. This enables energy-efficient work. The design also allows full use and re-sharpening of the blade.
• Paring knife – The practical knife with a short, curved cutting edge is particularly good for peeling and cleaning round fruits and vegetables. Valuable vitamins remain intact thanks to the precision blade, which reduces food waste.
• Handle – The African grenadilla wood handle panels are permanently riveted and fitted without gaps. The water-resistant wood is extremely hygienic and comes from controlled cultivation.
• Fluted blade – Small air pockets form in the blade's hollows when cutting. The positive effect is that thin or soft foods are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick.
• Precision double-serrated edge – The bread knife with a unique double-serrated edge cuts hard crusts as easily as soft bread, or large fruits such as pumpkin. The difference compared with traditional serrated edges is immediately noticeable.
