The combined riveted handle design is combined with a contoured shape to add comfort and control. The Classic Ikon adds a rear bolster that acts as a counter balance when using the knife. This second bolster adds significant blade control. Classic Ikon has a unique forward bolster as well. The forward partial bolster is designed so you can sharpen the complete length of the blade. This bolster is also curvered inwards to allow your fingers greater control while holding the knife by the blade. Located in, The Cutlery Capital of the World, Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned. Throughout it’s history, Wusthof has focused almost solely on the manufacturing of forged knives for the professional chef and home cooking enthusiast. Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time, yet still be able to be maintained in your home kitchen with out the need to be sent away for maintenance. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives. This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility.

Customer Reviews
- I have been using W?STHOF for years and the quality never disappointed me. This product comes with Classic IKon series, which I love. What I always liked about Classic Ikon is that knives are not heavy. Other Japanese brands I have used were too heavy and got some workout out of using them. I liked how it is exceptionally sharp. Handling was excellent. It fit my grip perfectly. I use it on average of 4-5 hours a day and I can notice when knife does not perform as expected. But not on this one.
The only problem I had was with the knife block. When it arrived first, it had a few chips all edge and the front of the block. The vendor was kind enough to send me another one directly from W?STHOF distribution center but that one was even worse.
