Ikon Chef's Knife 16 cm – Blackwood

Wüsthof Ikon Chef's Knife with 16 cm blade

The all-rounder: for mincing, chopping, or cutting meat, fish, fruit, and vegetables. This Chef's Knife is an active participant in many kitchen tasks, makes food prepping pleasurable, and is part of every professional and home cook’s basic equipment. The half bolster, the junction between handle and blade, reduces the weight of the knife, making it easier to handle. It also allows the entire blade to be sharpened more easily.

Wüsthof Ikon Series

The Wüsthof Ikon series represents the pinnacle of culinary sophistication, where traditional craftsmanship meets contemporary design. Each knife features handles crafted from sustainable African Blackwood, precisely shaped for optimal comfort and control. The distinctive double bolster design not only provides perfect balance but also adds a modern aesthetic touch that sets Ikon apart.

Every Ikon knife is precision-forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel and features  PEtec edge technology, resulting in exceptional sharpness and edge retention. The ergonomic handle design, combined with the full tang construction, ensures superior control and balance, while the hand-finished blades demonstrate the masterful craftsmanship that has defined Wüsthof for generations.
