  I loved everything about this knife. I plan on purchasing more knives to add to this one. I can't say enough about how great it fits my hand.....like it was made just for me! I've been using it almost every day and I haven't had to sharpen it yet. Love, love, love it!

  After purchasing this knife it is my go-to knife for just about anything I do in the kitchen well balanced and super Sharp

  It’s more how you treat your tools than how they start out. Treat this knife badly: it’ll be a bad knife. Anyway, you get what you expect from an almost $200 knife: great construction, good aesthetics, good brand recognition. If you’re just getting into cooking, try America’s Test Kitchen for product recommendations.

  I love Wustoff Trident knives. This one is perfectly weighted and the perfect size.

  Came sharp. It’s beautiful and the right size for my needs.

  I have a set of knives that includes a huge chef's knife. I love it and use it all the time, however, there are times when I wish it could be smaller. This knife is the answer to my wish. Easy to handle, very sharp and a great addition to my knife collection. All of which are Wusthof.

  You'd have to be real nitpicky to not give a Wusthoff Classic a 5 star. They're made well and hold and edge well. There's a reason Gordan Ramsey is usually holding a Classic or an IkonI'm very happy with this thing and I wish I just sucked it up and spent the cash on one sooner.The extra length has been wonderful as I prep and can large amounts of garden produce.The only "downer" is that the 10" probably isn't for you if you don't have a large cutting board.

  I have been a serious home cook for more than 25 years, so I really looked forward to getting this top of the line Wusthoff 10" knife. I have a 8" Zwilling Henckels 4 Star that I have loved for over 20 years. I keep it very sharp with regular honing and occasional sharpening. This knife just did not come out of the box with the razor sharp edge I was expecting. I tried cutting various vegatables and some meats. Tomatoes are my prime test for a sharp knife. It did the job, but not effortlessly. The feel and balance is great, and the greater length and heft make it a great choice when you have a lot of vegetables to prep. I just wish it was sharper. I will check with a cutler to see what they recommend.

  The only difference between the classic and the classic Ikon is bolster. It gets in the way when sharpening. Wusthof is a solid brand although kind of overpriced if you are paying close to the full list price.
