Wusthof Classic Ikon 17cm Santoku Knife

Brand	Unbranded
Manufacturer	Wusthof
Model Number	4176-0/17

The Wusthof Classic Ikon 17cm Santoku Knife is a drop forged, high carbon stainless steel knife that is designed after the Japanese Cook's Knife. The blade is tempered to an optimal hardness and has a specialised high carbon alloy that ensures the cutting edge of the knife is both razor sharp and easy to resharpen. The knife blade is skilfully honed by hand to an incredibly sharp edge, the entire length of which can be sharpened due to the partial bolster. The blade is ground thinner than usual, so there is less resistance when chopping and slicing. The knife also has stainless steel triple rivets that secure the slightly curved, weighted handle to the blade while maintaining its elegant appearance and superb ergonomic comfort.

Product Info
Styled after the Japanese Cook's Knife, this blade is just right for preparing not only fine Asian but also Western cuisine. The hollow edge creates pockets of air which prevent extra thin or soft slices from sticking to the blade:

• Drop forged from a single piece of steel and tempered to an optimal hardness


• Specialised high carbon, stain resistant alloy ensures that the cutting edge of the knife is both razor sharp and easy to resharpen


• The knife blade is skilfully honed by hand to an incredibly sharp edge, the entire length of which can be sharpened due to the partial bolster


• The blade is ground thinner than usual, so there is less resistance when chopping and slicing


• A computer controlled grinding and polishing of the blade ensures that there is a perfect tapering from bolster to tip providing you with a knife with maximum strength, balance and heft


• Stainless steel triple rivets secure the slightly curved, weighted handle to the blade while maintaining its elegant appearance and superb ergonomic comfort
