Description

The Wusthof Classic Ikon Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is designed with a thinner blade than the traditional Chef's Knife, at a 10&deg; cutting edge. This Eastern-style knife is designed for balance and agility and features a hollow edge which brings extra efficiency and speed to chopping, slicing, and dicing. This tighter angle is ideal for slicing meat, fish and produce. <br /><br />Wusthof Classic Ikon full-tang knives are precision forged from a single piece of exclusive Wusthof high-carbon stainless steel. The handle design is made of a highly durable synthetic material known as Polyoxymethylene (POM), which features a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. The half bolster allows for the knife to be honed and sharpened the entire length of the blade and the heel bolster provides added balance. Each Wusthof Classic Ikon knife features a computer controlled cutting edge to ensure the final edge of the blade is precise and uniform from the tip to the heel. The Wusthof PEtec angle and tapered cutting edge reduces drag when slicing foods, allowing for seamless and effortless cutting. Each knife blade is completely buffed and polished by hand. Wusthof Classic Ikon knives are made in Solingen, Germany with a lifetime warranty.

    OMG should have bought years ago

    I bought this recently and use it 3 times a day it seems. Best knife I've ever owned for chopping and dicing.

    Finally got the right small Santoku!

    As Master of the Kitchen, I command a small army of about 20 knives. About a year ago, wanting a small Santoku, I purchased the MAC version because I am very satisfied with my MAC Professional series blades. Alas, it was from a different series, and was too light in weight for me, so I sold it on eBay.

    I replaced it with a Wusthof Gourmet mini that cost about $60. It was heavier, but the blade required constant sharpening and honing and I grew weary of maintaining it, viewing the knife as unworthy. Then I read the Ikon specs, and saw somewhere that the blade boasted a smaller angle, like the Japanese knives. So I took the leap and ordered one from this very web site.

    The Ikon knife feels even heftier and better in my hand. The blade is super-sharp and stays sharp longer, a feature to which I've become accustomed with MAC. I have only to replace the Shun deba with a MAC and I will be through forever with buying knives.

    As for the discarded Wusthof, it too is headed for eBay.

    Love my new knife!

    I've had a collection of Henckel knives for many years. I have always thought they were the best for me. On a whim I bought this knife and I think that I have found a new favorite brand.
