Victorinox Cutlery 24-Piece Gourmet Cutlery Set, Rosewood Handles with Attache Case

Product Description

RH Forschner by Victorinox is the knife of choice for professionals and consistently receives high accolades in product testing. This best-in-class commercial grade cutlery is now available for home use. RH Forschner by Victorinox knives feature high carbon, stainless steel blades, 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.

So nice to have sharp knives again
I had been using my Victorinox steak knives for all my cutting needs because I can't be bothered to get out my huge cooking knives and have to clean them afterward (yes, I am that lazy). I finally decided to get some knives for paring, etc. that I can throw in the dishwasher. The first time I used the paring knife in this set I actually cut my thumb because they are so much sharper than what I had been using (yes, I have that horrible habit of cutting towards my thumb and not away). Anyway, I was pretty impressed. This is a good brand, and this is a nice little set.

Amazon.com Product Description
A great choice for culinary professionals as well as home cooks who enjoy high-end professional kitchen gear, this set of three paring knives from RH Forschner by Victorinox includes 3-1/2-inch fine edge parer, 3-1/2-inch wavy serrated edge parer, and 4-1/4-inch tomato/sausage knife with wavy serrated edge. Made in Switzerland, the commercial quality blades are made from stamped stainless steel with a high carbon content. All blades are conically ground on the full length of the blade as well as ground crosswise, which results in a wider break point with less risk of blade fracturing and less resistance for ease of cutting. 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.

The NSF-approved red polypropylene handles are ergonomically designed to minimize wrist tension. Hand washing is recommended, as the heat and the agitation of a dishwasher is not good for the edge of the blades and detergents can cause spots. The handles will also discolor with constant use of the dishwasher. The knives are backed by a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturers defects.

Amazon.com Review
An excellent choice for a cook setting up a kitchen, this gift-boxed set of three knives from Victorinox consists of a 4-inch parer for everyday peeling and cutting; an 8-inch carving knife for slicing meats; and an extra-large 10-inch chef's knife that tackles all chopping, dicing, and mincing tasks. Because the blades are stamped rather than forged the price is kept reasonable, yet the high-carbon, stainless steel is extremely durable and is ground to a razor-sharp edge that can be re-sharpened repeatedly. The molded Fibrox handles provides a sure grip, have no grooves or rivets to harbor bacteria, and are dishwasher-safe. All in all, the knives are lightweight and very utilitarian.

Started in 1884 in Switzerland, Victorinox is perhaps best known as the manufacturer of the Original Swiss Army Knife. Today Victorinox by R.H. Forschner makes everyday cutlery for the home as well as professional forged cutlery and multi-purpose tools. Hand-finished in Switzerland, the three-piece chef's set (model 89892) is covered by a lifetime warranty against defects. --Ann Bieri

Customer Reviews

Great knives, great price
I love these knives, and you can get the set of 3 for less than the chef's knife by Wusthof or Henkels, but they are super high quality.

They stay super sharp, easy to resharpen, and the molded handle is *way* more comfortable and non-slip than the normal chef-knife handles.

Top value
I'm a knife junkie, having owned several fine European- and Japanese-made Chef's knives and while these may not be the absoulte very best (my favorites are various knives in the Global, Kershaw-Shun, and MAC lines) they are by far the best value. The steel takes and holds a very good edge. Blades are thin, allowing knives to slide through big hard squash and melons more easily than thicker forged knives, but are still plenty strong. I use my 10" Chef to split cooked chickens and it's held up well. Ergonomics are generally excellent.

My only complaint is that the handle on the Chef's is a little bit on the large side - I like to hold my Chef's knives by pinching the blade between thumb and forefinger, and the smaller handles on the Global are better for that. But if you like to hold your knife by the handle and especially if you have larger hands these knives are tough to beat, at any price.

This selection is also excellent. I like the bigger-than-average 10" Chef for better rocking motion when chopping, also handy for splitting big melons and squash. The 4" parer is big enough to use for boning and as a general-purpose knife; the large nonslip handle (much bigger than on most parers) makes for a more secure grip. I wish they included a 10" carver/slicer but the 8" is adequate (and won't scare your guests if you carve at the table). Add the Victorinox Super Slicer (or another serrated knife) and you have pretty much every knife you'll ever really need....for less than the price of _one_ "premium" knife.

Best knife set there is.
This is the best set of knives you will ever own. Very sharp and handles well. Great looking too. Gift box is a joke though.

Another GREAT product by Forschner/Victorinox
This Forschner/Victorinox stuff is the best! I'm a confirmed addict. It started with the 8" chef's knife, then the 10" serrated, now the best steak knife set on the planet (for the money anyway). I think these guy's knives are the best, not just knives, but products, for the money anywhere. Unbelievable value! Try 'em, you'll like 'em.

Famous for its line of Swiss Army knives, Victorinox is also renowned for its fine kitchen cutlery. The Forged line is a great example of beautiful functionality blended with impeccable craftsmanship. The name of the line refers to the construction of the knives' blades, which are hot-drop forged and ice-tempered for exceptional strength and integrity. Made in Germany from high-carbon, stain-proof steel, the knives are finished in Switzerland with a twice-sharpened, laser-tested edge. They feature a single-piece full-tang construction for stability and balance, and their comfortable handles are triple-riveted for durability.

A great specialty set for cooks who roast and grill frequently, this Forged carving combo includes an 8-inch slicer and a 7-inch carving fork. The slender, ultra-sharp blade on the slicer delivers clean, smooth, low-effort cuts, while the fork holds meat stable without damaging it in the process. Both pieces should be washed by hand for best care, and the set carries Victorinox's lifetime warranty. Coordinating chef's, serrated, steak, and santoku knives are also available. --Emily Bedard
