The Wüsthof Classic Ikon Santoku Knife 17cm White is a broad-bladed Asian-profile knife for controlled push cuts, fine slicing and efficient vegetable preparation.

Key Features

  • 17 cm blade sized for vegetables, boneless proteins and fine slicing
  • Fine straight edge
  • Precision-forged full-tang construction with a half bolster and rear bolster
  • Wüsthof stainless steel hardened to 58 HRC
  • Contoured, triple-riveted synthetic handle
  • Made in Solingen, Germany

Why Choose This Product

Choose this for precise, controlled board work and a flatter cutting action than a traditional Western chef's knife. The medium format balances quick control with enough blade face for efficient vegetable work. The White handle also provides a distinctive visual identity that is easy to recognise in a shared kitchen or coordinated collection. Within the Classic Ikon range, this model stands out for a more sculpted, handle-led alternative to Classic, with excellent balance and full-edge access for sharpening.
Simply Hospitality Notes

This profile rewards controlled push cuts and a stable knife-friendly board. Avoid bones, frozen food and twisting cuts; the fine edge is designed for precision rather than impact.

Product Guide

Use a forward-and-down push cut and lift the blade cleanly between strokes. The broad face is useful for transferring prepared ingredients, but use the spine—not the edge—to move food across the board.

Brand Guide

About Wüsthof: Wüsthof has made knives in Solingen, Germany since 1814. Its collection ranges from lighter laser-cut Gourmet knives to precision-forged Classic, Ikon, Crafter, Performer and newer everyday lines, allowing cooks to choose by weight, handle feel and finish rather than brand name alone. Quality edges should be hand washed, dried immediately and maintained regularly.

Product Details

The broad face gives useful knuckle clearance and can help transfer prepared ingredients, while the flatter edge profile rewards a controlled forward-and-down cutting action. The Classic Ikon specification pairs precision-forged full-tang construction with a half bolster and rear bolster and contoured, triple-riveted synthetic handle to shape balance, durability and maintenance in daily use.

Best Suited To

  • Vegetables, boneless proteins and fine slicing
