The Wusthof Classic Ikon Utility knife should be a staple in every kitchen due to its incredible versatility and ability to slice through a multitude of raw or cooked foods. Created from one piece of high-carbon stainless steel, the blade of the Wusthof Classic Ikon Utility knife is longer than a paring knife but narrower than a chef's knife, allowing it to be a highly versatile kitchen staple. It easily slices larger cuts of meat, fruits, and vegetables, while still being small enough to peel. The ideal sandwich knife, it can cut medium-density foods of all types.
Laser testing ensures each hand-honed cutting edge is 30% sharper and better at maintaining blade precision than most knives. The traditional weighted, forward bolster adds heft, while the unique rear bolster equalizes the weight's proportions. This provides ultimate balance and cutting control while still creating an impressively elegant appearance. Allowing for easy sharpening of the entire blade, the precision forward bolster also makes it possible to utilize the full blade's length while cutting. A contoured, ergonomically-designed handle complete with a full tang and triple-riveting allows for comfort as well as permanent security. This perfect grip paired with the blade's sharpness require far less effort to use the knife. Featuring the classic Wusthof logo, the handle is also made from synthetic, durable polypropylene.
Each Wusthof knife is made in Solingen, Germany and comes with a lifetime guarantee.
