Overview
An 8 inch Swiss Classic chef's knife from Victorinox, model 6.8063.20B, with a stainless steel blade and an ergonomic, dishwasher-safe handle built for daily slicing, chopping, and mincing in a home kitchen.
Victorinox is best known for its Swiss Army knives, and its kitchen line draws on the same manufacturing base to build stamped stainless blades that hold an edge well for the price. The handle is shaped for a stable grip on the cutting board, and the whole knife is rated dishwasher safe, which is unusual for a knife meant to keep a sharp edge over years of use.
- 8 inch blade
- Swiss made
- Dishwasher safe
- Model 6.8063.20B
Who it's for
For a home cook who wants one all-purpose knife for mincing, chopping, and slicing without hand washing it every time. Less suited to someone chasing the heft of a forged German or Japanese blade.
Pros and cons
- Dishwasher safe, unusual for a kitchen knife
- Ergonomic handle for stability during prep
- Backed by a long-established Swiss manufacturer
- Matching Victorinox sharpeners available
- Sharpeners sold separately, not included
- Stamped rather than forged construction
Performance notes
The thin, sharp stainless blade is built to slice cleanly through meat, fruit, and vegetables, and the ergonomic handle keeps the knife balanced during longer prep sessions. Victorinox also sells matching sharpeners for this line separately, part numbers 7.8715 and 7.8721, which points to a blade meant to be maintained over time rather than replaced.
