Buy the Wüsthof IKON Blackwood 7" Hollow Edge Santoku Knife online at Cutter's Bench for the current sale price of $90.00, a 64% discount off the $250.00 compare-at price. This is the jewel of the Wüsthof collection and the best fit for serious home cooks who want a premium all-purpose Asian-style blade with a luxury Grenadill (African Blackwood) handle. Coupon BENCH10 takes another 10% off at checkout.
Sharpen at a 14–15 degree angle per side on a whetstone, working heel to tip. Hollow-edge indentations do not affect sharpening – maintain the same consistent angle across the full bevel. The half bolster allows honing and sharpening the entire length of the blade; use a honing steel between full sharpenings and a whetstone two to three times a year for regular home use.
Hand wash only and dry immediately – never dishwash or soak. African Blackwood is extremely dense and water-resistant, but periodic wiping with a food-safe mineral oil (oiling the Wüsthof Blackwood handle every month or two) keeps it conditioned and prevents drying. Cleaning the African Blackwood handle means a damp cloth and mild soap – no abrasives.
Versus the Wüsthof Classic Ikon santoku, the Blackwood edition adds the harder, heavier Grenadill handle and double-bolster balance. Versus Japanese santokus, this forged German blade offers more heft and Western handle comfort. At $90.00 versus $250.00, the IKON Blackwood is the standout price-value buy in premium santokus.

The Blackwood edition adds the denser, harder Grenadill handle and double-bolster balance at the top of the Wüsthof range – now priced near mid-tier levels thanks to this discount.
The African Blackwood handle is stunning, dense and warm in the hand, and the balance point sits right at the bolster. The hollow edge keeps onions and potatoes from sticking to the blade. I've chopped dinner for a family of five nightly for three weeks and it still glides through paper. This feels like a knife my kids will inherit.
Performance is flawless, the edge is wicked sharp out of the box and the hollow grind works as advertised. The Blackwood handle is gorgeous but slimmer than my Classic handle. Took a few sessions to adjust. No regrets at this price.
Rock chops, slices, minces. Full tang, no wobble, gorgeous wood.
Cuts beautifully and the steel is everything Wüsthof promises. I docked stars because the Blackwood handle needs more care than I expected, one soak in the sink left a slight rough spot I had to oil out. Hand wash only and oil it now and then. Fine for me but know what you're signing up for.
