Victorinox Swiss Classic Chef's Knife, 8"

Because carving should be effortless, Victorinox has created the Swiss Classic Carving Knife to ensure smooth, uniform cuts every time. The ergonomic handle and balanced design ensure absolute stability on the cutting board. The slender, super sharp blade allows you to slice all kinds of meat with superior grace and precision.

America's Test Kitchen Recommended

The tapered knife edge is ground in two directions for maximum cutting performance & durability and easy to sharpen.

DO MORE AT ONCE

The overall shape of the blade, with a long, sloping curve, lends itself to “rocking” very well, allowing one to mince and chop with ease, while the flat spine allows you to comfortably press down on the blade when extra power is needed.

SWISS STAINLESS STEEL

Made with high-quality, lightweight European steel that reduces hand and wrist fatigue, and stays comfortable even after extended use in the home kitchen.

ERGONOMIC BALANCED DESIGN

Designed to minimize wrist tension while providing a secure grip, the contoured nylon handle is both lightweight and durable.

5 out of 5 stars
Great knife!
Awesome knife. It is weighted perfectly and so sharp and easy to use. I wipe it dry immediately after washing and store it in the pkg it came in, fits right in my utensils drawer. Have bumped the edge and cut myself a couple times, not bad but lessons needed after living with dull knives for so long. I love this knife!

5.0 out of 5 stars Exceptional Value for a Budget Knife
Reviewed in the United States on June 27, 2024
Style: Chef's KnifeVerified Purchase
I own many knives, and I’m not sure why I waited so long before buying this one. Perhaps it was because I already had several expensive knives and felt like I didn’t need another budget knife. Let me tell you, this one is fantastic value.

Right out of the box, it came with a great edge, ready to tackle any kitchen task. The ergonomics are impressive, making it comfortable to use for extended periods. Surprisingly, I find myself reaching for this knife more often than some of my pricier ones. There’s a certain ease in using it without the fear of damaging a high-end blade, which makes it perfect for a variety of kitchen chores.

• Excellent value for the price
• Comes with a sharp edge out of the box
• Comfortable ergonomics
• Durable and practical for everyday use

Overall, this knife has exceeded my expectations. It’s a fantastic addition to my collection and a great choice for anyone looking for a reliable and affordable chef’s knife.

5.0 out of 5 stars Swiss made quality!
Reviewed in India on August 15, 2023
Style: Chef's KnifeVerified Purchase
What to say? This is the bests quality you will get for such a low price. As a Swiss and passionate chef I know what I am talking about. Screw all the super expensive as well as the cheap knifes you can buy. Just like with the Swiss army knifes, Victorynox delivers a perfectly balanced chef's knife with no fancy promises. It simply delivers on its professional promise: A solid blade, well balanced, and a proper plastic handle. The latter makes it perfectly machine washable. Just sharpen it before every use like every pro chef does, and you have a life companion.

On a side note: All the reviews here claiming its not sharp or looses sharpness quickly ... really, these guys just dont know how to maintain their tools like a professional. Cant win a war with them for sure. Just whinging and whining. Should grow up and learn how its done properly ... Just my ten cents worth!

One of the best knives out there. But as I am scared of sharp objects I would give it to someone who can use it without any fear. Though the knife is significantly too big for Indian household cooking. And maybe too sharp for amateurs.
