Ikon Chinese Chef's Knife 18 cm | 7 inch
$485.00
Forged from a single piece of WÜSTHOF steel, offering precision and a lot of power in the hand: the WÜSTHOF Ikon Chinese Chef's Knife will allow you to chop a cabbage or cut wafer-thin slices from a tomato in seconds, while the wide blade is also ideal for scooping up prepped ingredients and transferring them to the pot. The fine cutting edge ensures exceptional sharpness but should not be used on bones or very hard fruits (such as coconuts); instead, we recommend a European Cleaver or Butchers Knife.
Formulated for Optimal Sharpness
At WÜSTHOF's production factory in Solingen, Germany, forged knives are meticulously crafted through a process involving over fifty-four manufacturing steps. This process seamlessly blends innovative technology with the time-honored traditions of hand-made artisanship.
