Excellent, well balanced knife which has fast become the most-used knife in the kitchen. Good for almost everything.Customer Review: good, but not really a chef's knife
Summary: 4 Stars
I've got a Chicago Cutlery 6" Chef's knife which I like a lot but wanted to try something else, and at the price figured, "why not?"
Because the blade depth on this knife is relatively shallow I don't find it very useful for fine chopping and mincing which is what I bought it for.
That said, I really like this knife as a slicing knife. It is sharp and holds the edge well... it has a good sturdy blade with a stiffness that I like for cutting through meat, cutting up chickens, and also for slicing cheeses. The handle is very comfortable for me. (Curiously, I had bought this as a gift for my daughter but she didn't care for the handle and if you have smaller hand you may not either -- although she likes the Victorinox 8" chef's knife.)
All in all, this is a good, all around kitchen knife... it's just not a chef's knife.
Customer Review: Good quality knife for the money
Summary: 4 Stars
I have purchased several Victorinox Fibrox knives so far and the quality has always been excellent. In addition, to purchasing this 6" chef's knife I also purchased the 8 piece knife set with the block and a 7" santoku. I found this knife to have an extremely sharp blade. The edge has held up well so far, after several weeks of use. The knife is quite light, especially when compared to the 8" chef's knife and the blade is not as deep. The only reason that I did not give this blade 5 stars is that the handle is smaller and not as sturdy as the handles on the knives that were part of the knife set.
