Wusthof Classic Ikon Fillet Knife

This knife is specifically designed for filleting fish and preparing delicate meats. Its flexible, high-carbon steel blade allows you to glide through flesh and remove skin or bones with minimal waste.

The half bolster design allows you to sharpen the entire length of the blade from heel to tip. It also makes the knife lighter and easier to handle, providing more control during intricate cutting tasks.

No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the high-carbon steel edge and the handle material, you should always hand wash and dry it immediately after use.

A full-tang blade means the steel extends through the entire length of the handle, which provides superior balance and structural stability. This construction ensures the knife feels sturdy in your hand and is less likely to break or loosen over time.

Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) is a proprietary Wusthof process that uses lasers to measure each blade before sharpening it to a precise angle. This ensures the knife arrives with an exceptionally sharp edge that lasts longer than blades sharpened by traditional methods.

This knife is designed for precision tasks like filleting and trimming, not for heavy-duty chopping. Using it on hard vegetables, bones, or frozen items can damage or chip the thin, flexible blade.
