This straight paring knife features a small, narrow blade that tapers to a point at the tip. It is ideal for trimming, slicing, and peeling a variety of small produce like garlic cloves and fresh herbs. Wusthof's Classic Ikon line features forged, full tang blades, elegantly contoured POM handles, and a double-bolster design for professional-level heft and balance.

Each piece from the Classic Ikon line features a full tang that is triple-riveted to the handle, offering the user precision-level control. Classic Ikon handles are elegantly contoured to offer a comfortable grip and are made of durable polyoxymethylene (POM), which has a tighter molecular structure that allows it to resist fading and discoloration. This collection's double-bolster design provides excellent balance and heft in hand - the half bolster allows the full length of the blade to be sharpened, while the heel bolster adds stability. Wusthof's Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention, which helps keep your cutlery sharp and minimizes downtime spent honing and sharpening edges.

Use

• Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
• Ideal for cutting fruits, vegetables and boneless meats. Do not use to cut through joints or bone.
• Due to the inflexibility of ceramic blades, do not attempt cuts that require twisting or bending the blade, such as filleting.
• Do not apply force to the side of the knife blade, as you would to crush garlic.
• Always use with a plastic or wood cutting board. Avoid cutting on marble, stone, glass, ceramic or tile.
• Avoid dropping or scraping knife on hard surface.

Care

• Hand wash.
• To remove stubborn discolorations, wash the blade (avoiding the handle) in a mild solution of bleach and water.
• Do not leave knife in sink. Always store knife in a block or tray to prevent accidents.
• Knives may be sharpened using our Kyocera Electric Ceramic Knife Sharpener
