Exceptional balance, beauty and design. Built around the popularity of their Classic Line, Wüsthof added some nice upgrades when developing their Classic Ikon Cutlery. A reimagined double-bolster and ergonomic handle adds comfort, control and balance while the blade is forged from a single blank of high-carbon stainless steel with an exceptionally sharp edge. Classic Ikon merges the sleek, sophisticated elegance of a high-performance knife with the precision and durability of an all-purpose kitchen companion. All Wüsthof knives carry a lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects.Every single Wüsthof knife is still expertly crafted in Solingen, Germany —The City of Blades.
