Wüsthof Ikon series
Forged luxury. Every knife has a unique pattern. Sharp blade and premium wood.
With their special qualities, Ikon series knives make every occasion a festive experience. The handle, riveted securely from selected (sustainably grown) African grenadilla (Dalbergia melanoxylon), is striking, and every piece has a unique pattern. The special wood is water-resistant and hygienic, which makes it particularly suitable for use in the kitchen. At the same time, it has a natural, comfortably warm feel and an ergonomic shape that is a pleasure to hold and use. The unique geometry with a double bolster sits well in the hand, guarantees optimal balance and ensures even cutting, even over longer periods. Thanks to the half bolster, the knife is lighter, allowing energy-saving work. The design also allows the full blade to be used and sharpened. 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 the full length of the handle (full tang). The final hand finishing by Wüsthof's experienced specialists provides exceptional sharpness and quick, easy cutting.
• 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 of the knife, it is lighter. This allows energy-saving work. The design also allows the full blade to be used and re-sharpened.
• Peeling knife – The practical knife with its 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.
• Handle – The African grenadilla wood handle panels are securely riveted and assembled without gaps. The water-resistant wood is extremely hygienic and comes from controlled cultivation.
• Fluted blade – When cutting, small air pockets form in the blade's recesses. This means thin or soft foods can be removed from the blade more easily during use and do not stick.
• Precision double-serrated edge – The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts through a hard crust as easily as soft bread, or large fruits such as pumpkin. The difference compared with conventional serrated edges is immediately noticeable.
