The Wüsthof Classic Ikon 7-Inch Craftsman is a true all-in-one knife designed for cooks who want a single blade that can move from kitchen prep to grill-side work without compromise. Combining elements of a chef’s knife, boning knife, and slicer, it’s built to handle everything from breaking down proteins to slicing vegetables—eliminating the need to switch tools mid-task. The blade features a wide belly for smooth rocking cuts, a hollow-edge (Granton) finish to reduce sticking, and a clipped tip that excels at detailed work such as trimming fat, filleting fish, and working around joints. Whether you're processing beef ribs, portioning poultry, or prepping vegetables, the Craftsman adapts to the task at hand. What sets the Ikon series apart is its focus on comfort and control. The double-bolster design includes a rear counterweight that shifts balance into the hand, creating a more stable, controlled feel during use. Combined with a contoured handle, this reduces wrist strain and fatigue—especially during longer prep sessions—making it a meaningful upgrade for those who cook frequently. Precision-forged in Solingen, Germany from a single piece of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel, the blade is finished with Wüsthof’s Precision Edge Technology (PEtec), applying an approximately 14° edge per side for a sharp, durable cutting geometry suited for daily use.

A precision vegetable knife designed for faster prep, cleaner cuts, and all-day comfort. The Wüsthof Classic Ikon 7-Inch Hollow Edge Nakiri is built for cooks who want maximum efficiency when working with vegetables. Forged in Solingen, Germany, it pairs traditional German craftsmanship with a Japanese-inspired blade shape designed specifically for slicing, dicing, and chopping produce. Unlike the rocking motion of a chef’s knife, the Nakiri’s flat edge is optimized for a vertical push-cut technique. This allows the full length of the blade to contact the board, producing clean, uniform cuts with less effort—whether you’re working through dense root vegetables or delicate herbs. The hollow edge (Kullenschliff) features evenly spaced indentations that create small air pockets during the cut. This reduces sticking and helps ingredients release more cleanly from the blade, improving speed and consistency during repetitive prep. The blade is precision-forged from a single piece of X50CrMoV15 high-carbon stainless steel and hardened to 58 HRC for long-term durability and edge stability. Wüsthof’s PEtec process ensures a consistently sharp edge with excellent retention. What sets the Classic Ikon series apart is its comfort-focused design. The contoured handle and rear bolster shift the balance into the hand, creating a more controlled, less fatiguing feel during extended prep. The half-bolster at the blade allows for a natural pinch grip and enables full-length sharpening from tip to heel.   Best For High-volume vegetable prep where speed and consistency matter Cooks who prefer push-cutting over rocking Slicing, dicing, and chopping fruits, herbs, and vegetables Anyone looking for a more comfortable alternative to traditional chef’s knives Learn More

The granton dimples that run along the face of this blade keep food from clinging to the side of the knife after they are cut. If you've never tried a santoku we highly recommend that you consider this shape, it just may become your new favorite knife. Learn More
