Smaller than a chef's knife and larger than a paring knife, the WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon 4 1/2" Utility Knife is the perfect blade for a myriad of tasks. Think of this handy utility knife as a slightly longer, just-as-versatile paring knife with an aptitude for chopping shallots, onions, herbs, tender vegetables, and smaller cuts of meat. WÜSTHOF's Classic Ikon series merges the sleek, sophisticated elegance of a high-performance knife with the precision and durability of an all-purpose kitchen companion. Classic Ikon knives feature a distinct double-bolster design for professional-style heft, balance, and beauty. Handles are crafted from a highly durable synthetic material "Polyoxymethylene (POM)," which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration. The elegant shape of the handle is designed for a comfortable grip, and each and every Classic Ikon blade is precision honed from a single piece of WÜSTHOF steel.
Product Highlights:
Precision-forged from a single blank of high carbon stainless steel
Full tang that is triple riveted to the handle for precise control
Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention.
The half bolster allows for the knife to be honed and sharpened the entire length of the blade and the heel bolster provides added balance
Contoured handle for comfortable fit and a more contemporary appearance
