Excellent knives, well constructed

These knives have an excellent weight and hold a sharp edge if properly maintained.
Hand wash and do not use an abrasive sponge or cleaner on the blades.
Pros: Durable, Quality, Balance, Sharpness, Weight

Still the premier German cutlery
November 3, 2012
I've owned a set of Classic Ikon for about four years and they remain among the finest kitchen essentials I've ever used. The Wusthof sharpeners are excellent and regular touch-up is all that's needed to maintain a perfect edge. With basic care and keeping them out of the dishwasher, you will never need another set of cutlery.
Pros: Durable, Quality, Easy to Clean, Strength, Sharpness, Weight
