Based out of Solingen in the German Rhinelands, Wusthof have been creating high quality knives since 1814. A modern update to their classic series, Wusthof Classic Ikon features a smooth, ergonomically designed handle, shortened bolster and beautiful metal cap.
Wusthof Classic Ikon Series knives are a forged construction, made from a professional class formula of high carbon stainless steel, and laser cut for a precision cutting edge. The knives feature exceptional weighting and balance, with an exceptionally comfortable handle, thick spine and full tang design to make everyday chopping, slicing and dicing feel effortless.
Cleaning and Care
For the best results from your Wusthof knives, keep them clean and dry and when not in use, avoid dishwasher cleaning and abrasive scourers, and stick to a good maintenance regime. Each time you use your knife, give it a quick once over with a sharpening steel, and use a medium coarse sharpener every week or so. Periodically, the knife may have to be reground (especially if you don't keep on top of regular maintenance), which you can do by taking it to a professional knife sharpener or butcher. By taking care of your good German knives, you can expect many years of enjoyment from them.
