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-sharpened using Wüsthof's patented PEtec process. This gives the best edge angle, delivering the best possible cutting sharpness. The 58 HRC, single-piece forged rust-resistant 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 fits comfortably. The handle panels are made of a special synthetic material and are triple-riveted without seams, 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, the 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 double bolster ensures balanced handling. The knife fits well in the hand and guarantees even cutting.
• Half bolster: thanks to the thinner support structure of the knife, it is lighter. This allows energy-saving work. The design also allows use of the full blade and re-sharpening.
• Wavy edge: the internally formed wavy edge gives clean cuts 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 longer and requires less effort when cutting. The difference from a conventional serrated edge is immediately noticeable.
• Paring knife: this practical knife with its short, curved cutting edge is especially good for peeling and cleaning round fruits and vegetables. Valuable 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 are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick to it.
