Description: The WÜSTHOF IKON 8" Chef Knife is made from a special steel alloy for a low-maintenance, all-purpose blade that is strong, flexible, and extremely sharp. This chef's knife (also known as a cook's knife) is designed for maximum versatility—at just under 8 inches in length, the WÜSTHOF IKON Blackwood 8" Cook's Knife is capable of tackling many common cooking and baking prep tasks: slicing up cuts of meat, dicing and chopping vegetables for soup, cutting and peeling fruits and melons, and mincing fresh herbs to top off your spice cabinet. The medium length falls within the range of what many consider to be the most versatile of all chef knife sizes.Each in the Wustof IKON cutlery line starts out as a single piece of carbon steel which is forged into a full-tang knife with a balanced weight and ergonomic feel. The blade is tempered and sharpened many times before the tang is inset with a handle of pure, choice African blackwood. This exotic hardwood is, according to WÜSTHOF, technically and aesthetically superior to ebony wood in every way, providing a comfortable feel in the hand that won't vary with humidity levels and temperature.WÜSTHOF IKON Blackwood 8" Cook's Knife Features:New & improved look!Cook's knife is used for chopping, mincing & dicing - one of the most versatile tools in the kitchenStraight edge blade provides a smooth, clean, exact cut & can be used on a variety of meat, vegetables & fruitsContoured handle made of African Blackwood (Grenadill) which is known for its extreme density & distinctive wood grainForged blade constructed of high-carbon, stain-resistant steelFull tang knife triple riveted to the handleProprietary state-of-the-art Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) creates a blade that is 20% sharper with 2xs the edge retentionDouble bolster provides exceptional balance | Half bolster allows the knife to be honed & sharpened the entire length of the blade | Heel bolster provides added balanceWash by hand onlyLimited lifetime manufacturer's warrantyMade in the "City of Blades" of Solingen, GermanyLooking for more WÜSTHOF IKON Blackwood Knives or other WÜSTHOF styles?About the WÜSTHOF IKON Blackwood CollectionThe Ikon Blackwood Series is called the jewel of the WÜSTHOF brand, and it’s not hard to see why. The Ikon series, (also called the Ikon Blackwood or African Blackwood Series) shares many similarities with the Ikon Classic line, they feature the same shape and general design and are forged from the same high-quality German steel as all WÜSTHOF blades, however, the Ikon knives each have a handle made of their namesake wood. African Blackwood (Grenadill) is one of the hardest woods in the world and as such it’s extremely durable and resistant to swelling in changing humidity and temperatures. Beyond looking great, these handles are contoured for ultimate comfort and perfectly balanced with the blade. The Ikon Blackwood Series has fewer knives within it than the Ikon Classic Series, however, it contains all the basics needed to build a well-rounded collection.
