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 an endlessly sharp blade in a timeless design. Before sharpening, every blade is laser-guided using Wüsthof's patented PEtec process. This ensures the best edge angle for the best possible cutting sharpness. The single-piece forged stainless X50CrMoV15 blade, 58 HRC, runs through the entire handle, is extremely sharp and stays sharp 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 fit comfortably in the hand. The handle panels are made of a special synthetic material and are permanently triple-riveted, seamless, so they are 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, for home cooks and professional chefs alike. Moreover, the Classic Ikon is a tool used by the German National Culinary Team.
The Wüsthof Classic Ikon series holds NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) public health and food safety certification.
• 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 an even cut.
• Half bolster – Thanks to the thinner support structure, the knife is lighter. This allows energy-efficient work. The design also allows use of the entire blade and resharpening.
• Wavy edge – The internally formed wavy edge produces a clean cut and is suitable for large fruits, vegetables or baked goods. With its wide, long blade it is 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 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 – This practical knife with a short, curved cutting edge is especially useful for peeling and cleaning round fruits and vegetables. Valuable vitamins remain intact thanks to the precision blade, which also helps reduce 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.
