Wusthof Ikon 8" Bread Knife

CLASSIC IKON knives feature a distinctive, double bolster design for professional-style heft, exceptional balance and beauty. The handle is made of a highly durable synthetic material – Polyoxymethylene (POM) – which has a tighter molecular structure to resist fading and discoloration. The elegant shape of the handle is designed for a comfortable grip. The CLASSIC IKON 8" Bread Knife slices through bread or baguettes with minimal crumbs. The serrations along the edge help guide the blade through tough crust without compressing the soft inside.  Product Highlights: Precision-forged from a single blank of high carbon stainless steel Full tang that is triple riveted to the handle for precise control Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention. Tempered to 58⁰ Rockwell The half bolster allows for the knife to be honed and sharpened the entire length of the blade and the heel bolster provides added balance Contoured handle for comfortable fit and a more contemporary appearance
