WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon Knife Set

The Santoku features a thinner blade and a flatter edge profile, which makes it exceptionally precise for chopping and slicing. The hollow edge indentations on the blade help prevent food from sticking, allowing for smoother, more efficient cuts.

While the high-carbon steel is stain-resistant, we strongly recommend hand-washing these knives. Dishwashers can dull the precision edge and potentially damage the handle material over time.

The double bolster provides a balanced, weighted feel that makes the knife feel like an extension of your hand. It also adds structural integrity, ensuring the knife remains sturdy and comfortable during repetitive tasks.

No, the 3-inch paring knife features a straight edge. This design is ideal for clean, precise cuts when peeling, trimming, or performing intricate work on smaller fruits and vegetables.

Thanks to WÜSTHOF's Precision Edge Technology, these knives offer superior edge retention compared to standard blades. With regular honing and proper use on a wooden or plastic cutting board, you will only need to sharpen them occasionally to maintain their peak performance.

Full tang construction means the metal of the blade extends all the way through the handle. This provides superior durability, better balance, and ensures the knife won't snap or loosen at the handle over years of use.
