Overview
An 8 inch (7.9 inch blade) stainless steel chef's knife with a tapered edge and a TPE non-slip handle, made in Switzerland and rated dishwasher safe for daily kitchen use.
This is the same basic knife line long used in professional kitchens, valued less for novelty and more for a thin, tapered edge that keeps a working profile through repeated chopping and slicing. Victorinox backs it with a lifetime warranty against material and workmanship defects, and sells two compatible sharpeners (model B001X5A998 and B0050DIUZO) separately for upkeep.
- 7.9 inch tapered stainless steel blade
- Ergonomic TPE non-slip handle
- Dishwasher safe, Swiss made
- Victorinox lifetime defect warranty
Who it's for
Fits a home cook or working cook who wants one dependable all-purpose knife for chopping, dicing and slicing rather than a specialty blade. Not the pick for someone who wants a heavier, bolstered knife or plans to hand-sharpen only with a whetstone.
Pros and cons
- Thin, tapered stainless edge for everyday chopping and slicing
- TPE handle stays grippy when wet
- Lifetime warranty against material and workmanship defects
- Fibrox handle looks plain next to bolstered or wood-handled knives
- Sharpeners are sold separately, not included
Performance notes
The tapered stainless edge is ground thin so it moves through vegetables and proteins with less resistance, and the TPE handle is molded to stay grippy even when wet, which matters once hands are covered in food prep residue. Because the handle is a separate elastomer piece rather than the blade material itself, it will not develop the slip a worn wood or metal handle can.
