Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Victorinox 40521 10-Inch Chef's Knife, Black Fibrox Handle
Customer Review: A big knife for a big guy
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm a big guy and when I cook I like to cook big. For cutting up onions, beef, carrots, etc. this knife really does the job. I find myself reaching for it first, passing over the Henkels knives. The blade is a bit more flexible and the Fibrox handle gives the knife a solid feel even when wet. A lot of people are afraid of a big knife so don't be surprised when your guests express shock when you pull it out of the knife block. This is a quality knife at a good priceCustomer Review: Forschner by Victorinox 10 inch chef's knife
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife is in the midst of a knife skills class - the key point is use a knife at least 10" in length made of stainless steel and carbon. Make sure the knife is comfortable in your hand and not too heavy nor too light. This knife met all the criteria for her and she loves it. The price was much more affordable than the German knives and it is a top-rated knife by CI. We'll be looking to purchase more Forschner knives for her to use.Customer Review: Awesome knife
Summary: 5 Stars
Cooks Illustrated rated this knife the best in their comparison of chef's knives. I bought one for myself a year ago and liked it so much I got one for a friend last Christmas. Victorinox seems to have won all their tests. I would really like a Robert Kramer Damascus steel knife for the sheer beauty of the workmanship but at $100 an inch, it's too steep for my blood. I took myself off his 3 year waiting list. Darn it!Customer Review: What a great knife
Summary: 5 Stars
I looked at a lot of reviews before purchasing a knife, and this one looked like the most bang for the buck. I am so glad I went ahead with the purchase. You could spend twice as much and get a knife just as good as this one. This is a great knife. Nice balance, and it is large. Beautiful sharp blade. I have been using it for almost a month now and I could not be happier.Customer Review: Fine Knife
Summary: 5 Stars
It's sharp. It cuts things. It takes a good long while to dull. It's easy to hold. What more could I want from a knife? It makes my parent's Wustofs look cheap. My only "complaint" is that it makes using bad knives at other people's houses unbearable. Seriously, everyone needs one of these. Make sure to buy some sort of knife guard to go on it if you don't have a block.
