Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Victorinox 8-Inch Chef's Knife, Black Fibrox Handle
Customer Review: This knife turned me into a chef
Summary: 5 Stars
OK, just buying this knife didn't turn me into a chef, but after years of using kitchen knives and not really thinking much about them I purchased this 8" chef's knife and it completely revolutionized cooking for me.
I understand that this knife may not be quite as good as some of the knives costing many times more, but compared to the various department store knives I had been using this thing is simply incredible. Razor sharp, holds an edge well and feel great in my hand. Slicing and dicing has become nearly effortless. Using this knife is something I actually look forward to.
I have subsequently purchased several of the Victorinox knives and they are all good, better than anything I have used before.
This is a line of kitchen knives I would recommend to anyone.
As an aside, since these knives don't come with a block I purchased a magnet strip to hang knives from. I love this way of storing/displaying knives. Very convenient. Do yourself a favor and purchase a knife steel if you don't already own one and learn to use it. You will never have the problem of a dull knife again. Fast, easy and keeps the blades in out of the box sharpness for a very long time.
