Wusthof Ikon 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife with Blackwood Handle

Wusthof Ikon 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife with Blackwood Handle Review



Wusthof Ikon 3-1/2-Inch Paring Knife with Blackwood Handle Feature

  • 3-1/2-inch paring knife with straight edge and pointed tip
  • Precision forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel
  • Full-tang, riveted handle handcrafted from African Grenadill wood
  • Washing by hand recommended; made in Germany
  • Measures approximately 6 by 1/2 by 1/2 inches; limited lifetime warranty
The paring knife is one of the most widely used tools in the kitchen. Its versatility of uses is a mainstay in any kitchen a quality parer like the Ikon is a real pleasure for your small cutting needs. The Wusthof Ikon is culmination of all the best features of each of the Wusthof knife lines. The combined riveted handle design is combined with a contoured shape to add comfort and control. The handles are made of African Grenadill wood. African Grenadill wood is the worlds densest wood and expands and contract less than most traditional woods. These handles are hand crafted and fitted to each knife. The Ikon adds a rear bolster that acts as a counter balance when using the knife. This second bolster adds significant blade control. Ikon has a unique forward bolster as well. The forward partial bolster is designed so you can sharpen the complete length of the blade. This bolster is also curved inwards to allow your fingers greater control while holding the knife by the blade. Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel through out the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time, yet still be able to be maintained in your home kitchen with out the need to be sent away for maintenance. Our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives. This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility. Located in "The Cutlery Capital of the World", Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the Duchy of Berg. To this day, the company remains family owned.

Shun Ken Onion 3-Inch Paring Knife Review



Shun Ken Onion 3-Inch Paring Knife Feature

  • 3-inch paring knife with narrow blade and piercing tip
  • VG-10 stainless-steel blade with 33 layered Damascus detailing
  • Ergonomic ebony PakkaWood handle for comfort and control
  • Wide, gently rounded bolster; made in Japan; washing by hand recommended
  • Measures approximately 8 by 1 by 1/2 inches; limited lifetime warranty
This 3-inch Paring Knife offers such precision and control, it will improve meal presentation and reduce waste. The sharp blade makes it effortless to peel even slippery foods like kiwi while leaving most of the fruit intact. The wavy, Damascus pattern allows the blade to glide through foods without sticking. The stainless handle is unique to this line and provides comfort and control. Made in the ancient city of Seki, Japan, Shun knives rely on extremely sharp blades, made of Japanese VG10 steel clad with 32 layers (16 on each side) of a proprietary blend of high-carbon stainless pounded so thin, it delivers precision slicing, cutting and chopping that is unprecedented by any of its German competitors. Imagine, a knife made the same way as ancient Samurai swords, handcrafted still today. Sharper out of the box than other knives, the Shun cutlery maintains its sharpness longer, since the finely-polished blade edge has a natural tendency to remain straighter, yet when required, it can be honed using a standard steel or sent to the factory for free sharpening. The wavy, Damascus-look pattern on the blade creates minute air pockets that offer stick resistance, so food releases easier and prep time is reduced--plus it's rust-free. The Shun Steel line features an attractive stainless steel handle, formed in the same "D" shape as the Classic knives, for comfort and control. The seamless construction provides a sleek look while also being dishwasher safe and NSF approved for commercial kitchens. Shun Steel knives are suited for right-handed users only..
