## Description

From the manufacturer WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon

Review: Excellent quality! - Wüsthof have an enviable reputation as one of the very best knife manufacturers. They are still made in Germany and don't come cheap. I particularly like the Ikon range. The handle is full tang with a double bolster. The Ergo handle design feels just right in my hand. Feel is important in how precisely you control a very sharp knife. Particularly so with a small paring knife. Wüsthofs take an excellent edge and are designed to be kept sharp with regular honing. Honing is easier with the Ikon range because of the use of a partial bolster. That means the entire blade can be sharpened and honed without a full bolster getting in the way. I use a steel and a honing strop regularly and they stay razor sharp. The sharpness and precision make cooking so much more enjoyable. Look after your Wüsthofs and they should last years. Highly recommended.
Review: Handy and well made knife - Well made and very sharp. Slightly larger than an average paring knife. Handy for reaching into tough to get spots.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic knife!
*by A***R on 15 February 2026*

Wisthof is the best knife brand in Europe. Sharp as hell. HRC 58 - means good edge retention and not a brittle steel. Excellent handle comfort - exactly what I like. And on top of that Amazon was selling this knife at half the price it is usually sold at…. Delivery was very fast. Product arrived in good condition . Definitely recommend this knife and Wusthof brand to everyone.
