Wusthof is a brand recognized worldwide and is well known for their exceptional range of knives and kitchen accessories. Over 200 years of masterful crafting has resulted in products that emanate outstanding calibre and performance.
Proven W?sthof quality, simple in design and easy to care for, this is how the W?sthof IKON Classic series presents itself. The handle shells made of black special plastic are extremely hygienic. They are firmly riveted, seamlessly assembled and the unique ergonomics guarantee fatigue-free work. W?sthof Ikon Classic knives are optimally balanced and lie comfortably in the hand, the special bolster design allows safe cutting and sharpening of the entire blade.
The all-rounder: for mincing, chopping or cutting meat, fish, fruit and vegetables. This Cook?s Knife is an active participant in many kitchen tasks, makes food prepping pleasurable and is part of every professional and hobby cook?s basic equipment. The half bolster, the junction between handle and blade, reduces the weight of the knife, making it easier to handle. It also allows the entire blade to be sharpened more easily.
Dimensions: Blade ? 18cm, Handle ? 10.9cm, Blade width ? 4cm
Features:
The knife blades are forged from a single piece of stainless steel (chromium-molybdenum-vanadium steel) and hardened at 58? Rockwell. The PEtec process developed by W?sthof gives the blades an extremely sharp and long-lasting edge.
The handle scales of the W?sthof Classic Ikon series are made of a special plastic and are permanently riveted. The knives are pleasantly balanced due to the special bolster shape and, thanks to the ergonomically shaped handles, are comfortable to hold.
Care Instructions:
The knives of the W?sthof Classic Ikon series are particularly easy to care for. It is sufficient to clean the knives by hand after use with lukewarm water, a damp cloth and a little washing-up liquid. Then carefully dry the knives of the W?sthof Classic Ikon series. Avoid scouring cloths or aggressive scouring agents, as this causes unwanted damage to the blade. Cleaning in the dishwasher should be avoided. The blades can hit each other and be damaged. In addition, the aluminum rivets on the handle shells can loosen over time.
