Product Description:
The chef's knife is a kitchen staple, with a wide straight edged blade ideally suited to cutting and chopping fruits and vegetables, herbs, and so on. Some may find the 10" length too awkward and unwieldy, and for those people we recommend this slightly shorter knife. R. H. Forschner is a division of Swiss Army Brands, Inc, renowned for the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife. These knives are specially ground and tempered so that they can be resharpened over and over again, keeping a sharp edge throughout their lifetime. State of the art technology blended with old world craftsmanship produce cutting instruments of excellent quality, at reasonable prices. Forschner Victorinox Fibrox knives have earned high marks in a well-known cooking magazine which stringently tests kitchen products.

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

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.

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.

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!

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!
