Wusthof Classic Ikon Collection 

Wusthof Classc Ikon knives features a modern design. They are completely forged from one piece of X50CrMoV15 stainless steel. The handles are inlayed with the same poly material than that of the Wusthof Classic series. This series features a double bolster - while the standard position of the bolster between the handle and blade is an integral part of a precision forged knife providing heft and balance, the second bolster at the end of the handle completes the feel and ties in modern design. Made in Germany, Lifetime Warranty.

Wusthof Epicure precision forged, full-tang cutlery is a collaborative achievement between marketing and engineering teams based in the USA and Germany as well as industrial designer Bjorn Berger from Solingen, Germany. The blades feature a translucent ceramic coating on the entire surface to increase hardness, enhance resistance to corrosion, and protect the blade's surface from scratches. This dynamic and modern new blade shape is tempered to 58 Rockwell Hardness. The 14 degree PEtec blade edge on each side with laser guided precision is 20% sharper, lasting twice as long. The handle design uses the same wood composite material found in Epicurean cutting boards, ergonomically crafted for optimum comfort, and sculpted to reduce fatigue while looking beautiful in the kitchen. Blades made in Solingen, Germany, handles made in USA; lifetime warranty.
