Wusthof Classic Ikon Chef's Knives
Perfectly balanced to feel like an extension of your hand, this chef's knife deftly slices, dices, minces and juliennes. Its high-carbon-steel blade, forged in the renowned cutlery center of Solingen, Germany, tapers from handle to tip and from spine to edge. Knife is precision forged from a single piece of sturdy high-carbon steel that resists stains and corrosion. Full tang is triple riveted to the handle for exceptional durability and control. Wusthof's Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) gives each straight-edged knife an extraordinarily sharp blade that retains its edge 30% longer. A recessed bolster facilitates honing and sharpening the entire length of the cutting edge; a heel bolster provides added balance. Sleek contoured handle is made of smooth polypropylene.

beautiful, comfortable, sharp
December 13, 2012
Great knife. I had the Classic Wusthof version of this chef's knife for almost twenty years, and was ready for a new one. I was hesitant about switching to the Ikon instead of getting another Classic, but I really like it. The handle is much more comfortable, and the knife as a whole feels better balanced.

Excellent Knife
October 26, 2012
I purchased the 6" chef's knife and it is the perfect size for food prep. It's versatile, comfortably fits in the hand, very sharp, and has great balance. For me, it is an easier size to use than a bigger chef's knife and still does the job. Purchased another as a gift for my son.
Pros: Durable, Easy to Use, Quality, Balance, Easy to Clean, Easy to Store, Size, Strength, Versatile, Sharpness, Weight

Best knife I own!
July 8, 2012
I have had this knife for several years now and continue to be impressed by it. The edge is excellent and retains its sharpness as well as me being able to bring it to "hair flinging" sharpness. It balances well in the hand and is thick enough to keep my knuckles off the cutting board. I am spoiled to it and take it with me when visiting family and might be doing some cooking. I am not big into fancy cooking equipment and so have limited experience, but sometimes you can just tell when you find quality and that is what I see here. Excellent knife!
Pros: Easy to Use, Quality, Balance, Size, Sharpness, Shape
