Customer Reviews

Ginger O. Said: great knife! ( Nov. 19th 2009 )

how did I live without it? It has everything, for a reasonable price. I just ordered a second one.

Whitney Mcevoy Said: perfect chef knife ( Nov. 18th 2009 )

This is the 'go to' knife in a kitchen - light, sharp, great length for most tasks. Its truly the perfect all round knife for a cook.

L. Yang Said: very nice knife for a starter ( Nov. 18th 2009 )

I bought this knife recently and I am very impressed with its sharpness. Now cutting is a joy and it cuts everything like butter. I also bought a Shun 6' chef's knife which costs more than 2 times of this one, but the feeling of cutting is similar. My only complain is this one doesn't last very long, we cook every day and it needs sharpening about every 2-3 months.

R. Alford Said: Very Good Knife Buy! ( Nov. 16th 2009 )

I purchased the Victorinox (Forschner) 8" chef's knife on a recommendation from a nationally circulated cooking magazine. It was rated highly, over many, much more expensive knives - both European and Asian, (many of which I have). The blade and edge keenness,(European bevel of 20 degrees),seem to be of high quality, although I have not owned the knife long enough to test the longevity of the blade edge. The knife is perhaps just a bit bulky, although I am still going through an adjustment period compared to my other knives. The handle also lacks the expensive, sophisticated finish and metal trim of the posher brands. Altogether, however, the Victorinox 8" chef's knife appears to be a fine addition to my kitchen and certainly is a great buy!

S. Tippie Said: One of the best ( Nov. 13th 2009 )

A good knife is so important. And, I just love the Victorinox 8-inch Chef's Knife. You can really tell it's a quality knife and so sharp. If you need a knife, this is one of the best!
