The Wusthof Classic Ikon 4-1/2-Inch Asian Utility Knife is the blade you reach for when the chef's knife is too much and the paring knife is not enough. Its short, wide profile gives you knuckle clearance and a flat edge that stays in contact with the board, making quick work of shallots, garlic, chiles, mushrooms, cheese and sandwich prep. Like every Classic Ikon knife it is fully forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel and finished with Wusthof's PEtec laser-guided sharpening process for an edge 20 percent sharper with twice the edge retention. The Classic Ikon signature is its double bolster - one at the heel for balance and a finger guard, one at the butt of the handle to shift the balance point back into your palm. The contoured black handle is ergonomically shaped rather than flat-sided, so it sits securely through repeated cuts. Hand wash and towel dry immediately, hone regularly, and avoid cutting on glass, metal or bamboo. Forged in Solingen, Germany and backed by a lifetime warranty.
