Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Victorinox 5-Inch Mini-Chef's Knife with Fibrox Handle
Customer Review: Most useful knife ever
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought the 3-piece Victorinox chef's set a year ago. We love it, but frequently found that both my husband and I wanted to use the smallest (little over 4") knife in that set. So, I bought this 5" Chef's knife. Now we both want to use it all the time.
Like all the Victorinox chef's knives, this is wonderfully sharp, well-balanced, and has the great no-slip fibrox handle (which I at first thought seemed cheesy but now think it the greatest handle ever). But in addition, the angle (I think) of this blade somehow makes the knife miraculously fall through whatever you're cutting, almost without any expenditure of energy at all. It's a bit uncanny.
Also, the length seems perfect for most jobs . . . not at all unwieldy or scary like the longer ones, but long enough to just require a single fast smooth flow for most cutting tasks. Small and manageable enough that I don't use my paring knives anymore except when I want to peel something, but long enough that I avoid the anxiety of using the big chef's knives. Definitely worth the price.
Description of Victorinox 5-Inch Mini-Chef's Knife with Fibrox Handle
The R H Forschner by Victorinox Mini-Chef's Knife features an 5-inch blade that is 1.5-inches wide at the handle. 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.Chef's Knives
