Wusthof - Classic Ikon 7 pieces knives block - Acacia

The set includes:

• A block of 15 acacia wood openings,
• A paring knife 9cm,
• A 23cm bread knife,
• A 23cm sharpener,
• A bacon knife 16cm,
• A chef's knife 20cm
• Kitchen scissors.

Technical characteristics of the knives making up the set:

• Full length silk (blade)
• Forged steel knife
• Alloy making up the blade: hardness of 58 on the Rockwell scale (HRc), i.e. a medium hard steel
• Polypropylene handle riveted in 3 places

Care:

• It is very important to maintain your knife frequently (at least 1 to 2 times per week, even every day) with a rifle (or rat tail) made of a metal just as hard as that of your knife (consult us for more information).
• Alternatively, the two-step sharpener is a practical tool that does not require technique.
• The important thing is to use one or the other, but to use one. If you fail to do so, you will notice an under-performance of the edge of your knife and you will be exposed to an increased risk of injury.
• Washing in the dishwasher strongly discouraged, since it dulls the edge of the knife (the sharp part of the knife); so hand wash.

CAUTION: for the bread knife, refer to the video in the individual product sheet for maintenance.

Sharpening:

Depending on the use, once or twice a year, sharpen your knives (on a grinding wheel or Japanese water stones). At any time, you can bring your knives to the store to have them sharpened by our Sandro Vecchio trimmer (generally 4 days).
