WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon 17cm Japanese-Style Santoku Chef Knife for Precision Cutting

Discover the ultimate precision in your kitchen with the Wusthof Classic Ikon Santoku Knife—a versatile tool designed for chefs of all levels. Crafted from premium forged steel with Wüsthof’s innovative PEtec edge technology, this knife delivers razor-sharp performance that maintains its edge longer than traditional blades. Its ergonomic curved handle offers a secure grip for effortless control, while the full tang construction ensures balance and stability during every cut.

Perfect for slicing meat, dicing vegetables, or preparing delicate Asian ingredients, this Santoku knife combines power and precision. The hollow-ground blade creates air pockets that reduce friction, preventing thin slices from sticking—ideal for precision work like paper-thin radish cuts or feather-light citrus zest. The rounded tip excels at fine dicing, while the blade’s depth effortlessly slices through root vegetables like potatoes or beets.

Designed with both Eastern and Western cuisines in mind, this knife’s rectangular shape allows you to scoop ingredients directly into pans or bowls. Its lightweight half-bolster design provides superior maneuverability compared to heavier chef knives, making it a go-to for quick prep tasks or intricate garnishes.

As a family-owned brand since 1814, Wusthof has redefined professional knife craftsmanship. Each Classic Ikon knife is handcrafted in Solingen, Germany using techniques honed over ten generations—your investment in quality that lasts a lifetime. Whether you’re prepping weeknight meals or mastering advanced culinary techniques, this knife offers unmatched performance and durability. Hand wash in warm water and dry immediately to preserve its exceptional finish. Ages 18+ only.
