Wusthof Ikon Block Set

The set includes a 3.5-inch paring knife, an 8-inch bread knife, and an 8-inch chef's knife. It also comes with a 9-inch honing steel, kitchen shears, and a 15-slot natural acacia wood block.

The double bolster provides extra weight at the center of the knife, which improves balance and stability. This design helps reduce fatigue during repetitive cutting tasks and provides a secure grip for your fingers.

While the polypropylene handles are durable, Wüsthof recommends hand-washing all knives with warm water and mild soap. Dishwashers can dull the blades and potentially damage the handle material over time.

Full tang construction means the metal of the blade extends through the entire length of the handle. This provides superior strength, durability, and a balanced feel that makes the knife feel like a natural extension of your hand.

Yes, the set comes with a 15-slot acacia block, even though the set itself contains five tools. This gives you plenty of room to expand your collection with additional knives in the future.

The warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal household use. It does not cover damage caused by misuse, such as cutting on hard surfaces like glass or using the knives for non-culinary tasks.
