The WÜSTHOF Classic Ikon 7" Fillet Knife's agile blade was designed for easy, nimble, wafer-thin slicing, especially when it comes to more delicate tasks such as boning or skinning tender fish fillets. The Classic Ikon fillet knife's special talents also include peeling fruits and vegetables and boning smaller cuts of meat, such as chicken legs. WÜSTHOF's Classic Ikon series merges the sleek, sophisticated elegance of a high-performance knife with the precision and durability of an all-purpose kitchen companion. Classic Ikon knives feature a distinct double-bolster design for professional-style heft, balance, and beauty. Handles are crafted from a highly durable synthetic material "Polyoxymethylene (POM)," which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discolouration. The elegant shape of the handle is designed for a comfortable grip, and each and every Classic Ikon blade is precision honed from a single piece of WÜSTHOF steel.
