Wüsthof Ikon series
Forged luxury. Every knife has a unique pattern. Sharp blade and premium wood.
With their special properties, the Ikon series knives make every meal a festive experience. The handle of selected (sustainably grown) African grenadilla (Dalbergia melanoxylon) is permanently riveted; it is striking, and each piece has a unique pattern. Thanks to the wood's water-resistant and hygienic properties, it is particularly suitable for kitchen use. At the same time, its natural, pleasantly warm feel and ergonomic shape make the handle a joy to hold and use. The unique geometry with a double bolster fits well in the hand, guarantees optimal balance and provides even cutting, even over longer periods. Thanks to the half bolster, the knife is lighter, which enables energy-saving work. The design also allows use of the full blade and sharpening. The blade is forged from a single piece of high-quality stainless X50CrMoV15 steel, with a 29° edge angle, characterised by high robustness and durability. The blade runs through the handle (full tang). The final work, done by hand by experienced Wüsthof specialists, provides exceptional sharpness and quick, easy cutting.
• Double support geometry - Balance and ergonomics: the special geometry with a double bolster ensures balanced handling. The knife fits well in the hand and guarantees even cutting.
• Half bolster - Thanks to the thinner support construction, the knife is lighter. This enables energy-saving work. The design also allows use of the full blade and resharpening.
• Peeling knife - The practical knife with a short, curved cutting edge is particularly useful for peeling and cleaning round fruit and vegetables. Valuable vitamins remain intact thanks to the precision blade, which reduces food waste.
• Handle - The African grenadilla handle panels are permanently 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 hollows of the blade. This means thin or soft foods are easier to remove from the blade during use and do not stick to it.
• Precision double-serrated edge - The bread knife with its unique double-serrated edge cuts a hard crust as easily as soft bread, or large fruit such as pumpkin. The difference from conventional serrated edges is immediately noticeable.
Dishwasher use is not recommended.
