High carbon, stainless steel blade is hand finished at Victorinox in Switzerland by skilled craftsmen. A special tempering process is used to produce an edge that can be resharpened over and over again, so the knife can keep its original sharpness throughout the entire life of the blade. Victorinox handles are ergonomically designed to minimize wrist tension. They provide a natural fit. A good heft and comfortable, positive grip are indications of a well-made knife. A sure-grip handle with a finger guard is valuable feature since the handle inevitably gets greasy, wet, or both. Although cutlery steel is naturally sanitary, materials and construction details of the handle minimize crevices what would offer hospitality to bacteria. | | | Features: | |

 Great but could've been betterJul 06, 2010
Out of the box, this knife was extremely sharp! after using it a few times, the knife was really easy to use and felt great while in use. The handle seems very ergonomic and very well made. However, i did notice it getting quite dull after a week of use even with the proper care.
 Good as GoldJun 26, 2010
My wife loved this knife when I got it for her, and after weeks of use she says it's great quality for the price and is everything it said it was. Highly recommended.
Great ValueJun 24, 2010
Wonderful value. I pretty much insist on using sharp, value-oriented knives in the kitchen. This is a winner. While it is a stamped blade, the blade has a good weight and balance. The Fibrox handle provides for a good grip, even when your hands are wet or greasy.
The 10" blade may be a bit large for some people. I have large hands and I appreciate the larger size. I'm one of those people who wants the knife to do the work, so the larger blade is a plus for me.
I've also found that the knife is easy to maintain. I hand wash it, although the manufacture indicates that it is dishwasher safe. And while the blade holds a nice edge, it is also easy to sharpen.
Excellent for the price!Apr 11, 2010
I'm in love with my new knife! It is very sharp and has been very useful.
supremely sharp knifeMar 25, 2010
Our knives have been horribly blunt for months now and seem to be beyond rescuing by the electric sharpener, so I decided to buy a single Victorinox to test out the brand. Well, there is no comparison - the Victorinox is simply the best knife I own. Not only is it supremely sharp, reducing onions, tomatoes and mushrooms to chopped piles in seconds, but the grip, size and balance are perfect for my hands. As other reviewers have said, there are better knives out there but not in this price range. The only caveat is to watch your fingers - it's extremely easy to cut yourself deeply if you miss, so keep those digits tucked in!
