Wüsthof Classic Ikon 4-Piece Steak Knife Set

Curved Classic Ikon handles come to the dinner table in this Wüsthof 4-piece steak knife set. Each forged blade has the half bolster that sets Classic Ikon apart, so the cutting edge runs to the heel and can be sharpened along its full length.

Shoppers weighing a serrated against a plain steak knife can think of it this way. A plain edge slices a steak without shredding the fibers and is simple to maintain with a steel at home. Serrations grip a seared crust and keep working longer before they need attention, though sharpening them is a job for a professional. Wüsthof’s product page for this set leaves the edge style unstated, so get in touch and we can confirm it for you.

The rounded handle and second bolster at the butt give these knives a balanced feel through a long meal. They pair with Classic Ikon kitchen knives like the Classic Ikon 8-inch chef’s knife. Keep the four together in a cabinet with a steak knife block. For six place settings in the Classic line, see the Classic 6-piece steak knife set.

    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. Plain-edged knives can be maintained with whetstones, guided manual or electric sharpening systems and honing steels, and we recommend honing steak knives before or after each use. Cut on wood or plastic boards, never on glass, stone or metal.
