The Classic Ikon treated blade
This Wusthof 1040430123 chef's knife features a hardened X50CrMoV15 stainless steel blade. This durable metal alloy is highly resistant to corrosion and wear. Its 23cm size is ideal for slicing the vast majority of foods. It is long enough to slice large vegetables, but short enough to be handled with ease.
Importantly, the blade has undergone PEtec treatment. This is an innovative technology developed by the Wüsthof brand . This innovation involves laser-sharpening the blade to give it a formidable cutting edge. As a result, the blade becomes sharper, easier to maintain and its edge lasts longer. Between the blade and the handle is a specially redesigned bolster that does not extend to the cutting edge. This allows the cook to use the entire edge.
On the other hand, the edge of chef's knives is quite thin. For this reason, it is not recommended for chopping.
A handle that's easy to handle
The handle is made of polyoxymethylene, also known as POM. This material is durable and resistant to stains, wear and chemicals. Since it is very light, using POM as a handle ensures that the knife is easier to handle.
Care: Hand-wash recommended
Perfect preparation starts with the best cook's arsenal. From now on, opt for the Wüsthof Classic Ikon 23cm white forged chef's knife for successful recipes!
