Wusthof Classic Ikon Knives
Wusthof Classic Ikon knives have some very distinct and highly regarded design innovations. First, the bolster on the Cook's Knife has been modified for ease of sharpening. There is a steel end cap (referred to as a second, or double bolster) that assists in balance and aesthetics. The POM handle has a unique humpback design that snugs nicely into the palm creating a very firm and comfortable grip. Perfect distal tapering and laser guided sharpening techniques are a result of precise German engineering and robot-assisted construction. The steel is tempered to a Rockwell hardness of 58 that is easily maintained with use of a fine-cut honing rod. Wusthof remains a family owned and operated company after 200 years. Manufactured in Solingen, German, these knives come with a full lifetime warranty.

Wüsthof Classic Ikon 9-inch Double-Serrated Bread Knife
Small teeth set into each larger serration give the Wüsthof Classic Ikon 9-inch bread knife its double-serrated edge, a design Wüsthof calls precision double serration. The large serrations grip a hard sourdough crust, and the smaller ones cut through the crumb cleanly, so slices come away whole with fewer crumbs on the board.Nine inches covers a wide boule or a long batard, and the edge also slices bagels, focaccia and the domed top off a cake layer. On the Classic Ikon handle, the knife sits securely in a full grip for the sawing motion that bread requires.A double-serrated edge earns its place for customers who bake crusty loaves at home; for soft sandwich bread, the Classic 8-inch bread knife is enough. The Classic 9-inch double-serrated bread knife has this edge on the original riveted Classic handle, and the Classic Ikon 10-inch Super Slicer handles bread and roasts.

Wüsthof Classic Ikon 10-inch Super Slicer
Wide scallops run along the outwardly curved edge of the Classic Ikon Super Slicer, a 10-inch serrated knife with a rounded tip. It works as a bread knife and a carving knife at once. Those scallops saw through a hard crust, and they also slice a brisket, a ham or a beef tenderloin without shredding the surface.The tall, 1.7-inch blade tracks straight through a tall boule, and its length handles a pineapple or a watermelon. The rounded tip makes it a comfortable knife to use at the table, where a pointed slicer can catch a platter or a guest’s hand. It also doubles as a palette knife, and the blade slices a layered cake without disturbing the frosting.On the Classic Ikon handle, it balances in a full grip for long sawing strokes. The Classic 10-inch Super Slicer offers this blade on Classic’s riveted handle. For straight-edged carving, see the Classic 9-inch hollow edge carving knife, and for a dedicated bread knife, the Classic Ikon 9-inch double-serrated bread knife.
