Victorinox 8-Inch Chef’s Knife, Black Fibrox Handle
Victorinox 8-Inch Chef’s Knife, Black Fibrox Handle From the inventors of the famous Swiss Army knife comes a line of fine cutlery designed for accomplished and aspiring chefs at work or in the home. Each blade in the Stamped collection is expertly made in Switzerland from high-carbon stainless steel and undergoes a special tempering process for an edge that can be resharpened again and again. The result is a knife that can keep its original sharpness throughout the entire life of the blade. Each blade is conical ground throughout its length and depth, and laser tested to ensure optimum cutting power and durability. Ergonomically designed to minimize wrist tension, the unique, patented Fibrox handles are slip resistant when wet. Plus, all Stamped cutlery with Fibrox handles is approved by the National Sanitary Foundation (NSF).

Victorinox 8-Inch Chef’s Knife, Black Fibrox Handle Reviews
Excellent Knife and NOT high-priced!
This knife is such a value. I have always had a hard time accepting the high-prices on Wuesthoff or Henckel knives because I never felt the VALUE was worth it. Boy am I glad I held out for the Victorinox knife! This knife, also known as Forschner, is consistently sharp. Just a few swipes of the sharpening steel and its good as new again. I use this knife and a 6″ every day. The handles are comfortable and do not get slippery when wet. They are practically the only knives I use. I wash and wipe dry after each use (NEVER put in the dishwasher). I think you’ll be as pleased as I if you try this knife.
Cooks Ilustrated is right — again!
This is the chef’s knife I’ve been looking for. The blade is the right balance between stiff and flexible. The perfectly curved shape automatically starts that rocking motion that makes chopping a breeze. I’ve been skeptical about ever developing the ability to chop like the chefs on cooking shows. No longer. And to think — it was my bad knives to blame all this time! I’m buying several of these to give as Christmas gifts this year.
