Wüsthof Classic Ikon 3.5-inch Paring Knife

Wüsthof Classic Ikon 3.5-inch Paring Knife

For close work in the hand, Wüsthof’s Classic Ikon 3.5-inch paring knife sets a short blade on the contoured Ikon handle that fills the palm. It trims Brussels sprouts, hulls strawberries, deveins shrimp and pares the skin from a kiwi, jobs where the knife moves in your hand and control matters more than reach.

Many paring knives are hard to use because their handles are so small, and the Classic Ikon handle gives you plenty of room to grasp the knife comfortably. Classic Ikon is our suggestion for customers who want an upgraded grip. The rounded handle is comfortable when you hold it fully, as you do for paring, and it stays put when you choke up for a pinch grip. With no bolster at the heel, a sharpener reaches the edge right back to the handle.

For a longer paring blade, see the Classic 4-inch paring knife; for straight cuts on the board, the Classic Ikon 3-inch flat cut paring knife. The Ikon 3.5-inch paring knife with a blackwood handle is the same knife in natural wood. Our knife shapes guide describes each paring style.

Care

Wash by hand in warm, soapy water right after use and dry it immediately. Do not put the knife in the dishwasher or leave it soaking. Hone it regularly on a steel and sharpen it when honing no longer restores the edge. Cut on wood or plastic boards, never on glass, stone or metal.
