The sharp blade of a Santoku allows anything from regular to wafer-thin cuts - it is therefore now indispensable in kitchens all around the world. ## Features - WÜSTHOF CLASSIC IKON SERIES – Features a sleek and sophisticated black handle with a double bolster for exceptional balance, beauty, and the ultimate cutting experience. Classic IKON: Design, Ergonomics, and Quality Perfected - PRECISION FORGED – Forged from a single block of High Carbon Stainless Steel and tempered to 58-degree HRC. The Precision Edge Technology (PEtec) yields a blade that is 20% sharper with twice the edge retention than previous models - ASIAN KNIFE – The CLASSIC IKON 5" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife is designed with a thinner blade than the traditional chef’s knife, at a 10 degree cutting edge, and gradually curves up at the very end providing a straighter edge. The hollow edge is crafted with evenly spaced vertical indentations, which create small air pockets between the blade and the food - CENTURIES OF TRADITION – Family owned for seven generations, WÜSTHOF was founded in Solingen, Germany over 200 years ago. WÜSTHOF’s cutlery carries the Solingen name, a designation reserved for products that meet the strictest quality standards ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0862X176T | | Best Sellers Rank | #143,898 in Kitchen & Dining ( See Top 100 in Kitchen & Dining ) #84 in Santoku Knives | | Blade Color | Silver | | Blade Edge | Hollow | | Blade Material Type | High Carbon Stainless Steel | | BladeLength | 5 Inches | | Brand Name | Wüsthof | | Color | Black | | Construction Type | Forged | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (577) | | Handle Material | Stainless Steel | | Included Components | Santoku | | Is the item dishwasher safe? | No | | Item Length | 5 Inches | | Item Type Name | Classic IKON Santoku | | Item Weight | 2 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Wüsthof | | Manufacturer Part Number | 1040331314 | | Material Type | High Carbon Stainless Steel | | Model Number | 1040331314 | | Size | 5" | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Blade Edge:** Hollow - **Blade Material:** High Carbon Stainless Steel - **Brand:** Wüsthof - **Color:** Black - **Handle Material:** Stainless Steel ## Images ![Classic IKON 5" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wfqzCqxIL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/236116747-classic-ikon-5-hollow-edge-santoku-knife-black](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/236116747-classic-ikon-5-hollow-edge-santoku-knife-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
