R.H. Forschner by Victorinox 8-Inch Chef's Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


This is the best knife we own. The handle is not cumbersome at all. The weight of the knife is perfect for cutting everything from cabbage to herbs to nuts and fruit. This a real keeper for years to come.

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 3-1/4-Inch Paring Knife, Large Black Handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


This knife is very sharp and comfortable to use. The handle doesn't seem to be the fibrox like the 8" chef's knife, it has a little less "grip" to it, but it shouldn't be a problem even if your hands are a little wet. For $5, I'd definitely recommend this knife. As someone who enjoys cooking, but doesn't want to spend a fortune on her hobby, this line of knives is perfect. They are so much sharper and thinner (but not flimsy) than others I have bought which makes kitchen tasks a breeze. It really makes me want to cook more when I have tools like this that work so well.

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 7-Inch Granton Edge Santoku Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


I absolutely LOVE this knife. I now use chopping therapy as a daily calming activity. I realize that sounds a little crazy, but I'm serious that cutting/chopping is now so easy it's not a chore. It's just the right length and just heavy enough to get the job done, but doesn't fatigue your hand/arm.
Well worth the money @ this knife! You won't be sorry with this purchase.

R.H. Forschner by Victorinox 3-Piece Fibrox Chef's Set, Molded Handles

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


This is my first set of "real" knives, and they are great! Very comfortable to grip and use, and they are super sharp. When they first arrived, my roommate ran his thumb over the edge of the chef's knife and expressed skepticism about its sharpness. So he picked up a piece of paper and sliced at it. The cut was quick and smooth. He was impressed. My experience cutting tomatoes--often a good test--has been the same.

I had done a bunch of research before deciding on these knives. They are definitely a good buy, lots of value for the money. My only slight complaint (and it is really not much of one) is that they are advertised as dishwasher-safe, though hand washing is recommended. But when the set arrived, its instructions ...

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Curved Blade Bread Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


I bought this knife to replace a much-loved bread knife whose wooden handle had gotten dried and cracked. Wow! I hadn't realized how dull my old knife was until I used this one the first time. The bandaid on my finger attests to the keenness of the edge: on the very first draw through my morning bagel, it sliced as much as my old knife would have done in 3 draws, and reminded me that there is a correct slicing technique.

Great knife! Handle with care.

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 12-Inch Granton Edge Slicing Knife, Black Fibrox handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


I've been wanting a large granton slicer for quite awhile...but never could quite see paying the cost of a forged blade.

This is a terrific knife, and an excellent value. It arrived sharp, and a quick honing keeps it that way. My slicing is better than ever.

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 3-Piece Paring Knife Set, Black Poly Handles

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


I almost didn't buy this set because I figured I'd have no use for a gimmicky curved knife and a serrated blade, I only wanted the normal paring knife, but the set was only a little bit more expensive than an individual paring knife. As it turns out I use the curved knife more than any other knife I own, and the serrated one more than the normal paring knife- I was fully prepared to hide those two knives in the back of my drawer and never look at them again, but they are really great. I'm sure you can get better knives somewhere, but not at anything remotely close to this price. I am pretty picky about knives, and Forschner's are definitely the best I have used. I also strongly recommend the 8 inch chefs knife. I guess the best way to sum up my feelings ... Read More:

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 10-Inch Chef's Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


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 price

R H. Forschner by Victorinox 6-Inch Flex Boning Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

from: R H Forschner by Victorinox


Boning is not something I do often so it makes no sense to buy a boning knife...well not for a high price. I find this a great addition to my premium knives and worth the investment for this special task...also works great for filleting.
