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. Our knife shapes guide explains bread knives.

    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.
