Best Knives I Have Ever Owned!
Asked my niece and her hubby (both are trained chefs) what knives are their choice so that I could upgrade mine. They suggested the Wusthof Classic Ikon line. I could not be more satisfied with the selection. You guys are the best, even when I need to get a replacement….

My new favorite knife!
This knife does the work of several others - slicing, paring, chopping. I find that I reach for it first more often than not.

Great blade, wrong handle
I’ve had this knife but with the Classic handle for years. I bought this one with the Ikon handle just to have a second one. Unfortunately I returned it because the handle is very heavy and it felt off balance. But the style of the blade is excellent.

Great product
Bought this knife to add to my collection of other wusthof knives. I have the shorter version of this and absolutely love it. The longer blade on this knife was exactly what I needed and wanted. Would definitely recommend

Simply the BEST
I purchased a chef’s knife, a slicing knife and a pairing knife. My thoughts were, “where have you been all my life. ” I use all three knives each time I prepare a meal. I purchased both of my sons a set for their Christmas gifts. “You’re welcome, sons. ” These knives are simply the best! Don’t prepare food any longer without them.
