Product Description:
The R.H. Forschner collection has grown in size and stature since its name was first carved in steel in 1855. Historically a premier choice of culinary professionals, it is still preferred by professionals today.
Renowned for its extremely sharp, Swiss made, steel blades from Victorinox, R.H. Forschner provides professionals in food processing and preparation with superior quality, value-priced cutlery that enhances performance and increases productivity. They are manufactured in Switzerland. The renowned rosewood handles feature a carved handle design with the unique beauty of natural rosewood and are extra durable. The fibrox handles feature a non slip, ergonomic design and are NSF approved. The blades feature a high-carbon no stain steel with the unique Victorinox polished surface and a taper ground edge. You can choose from a complete collection of cooks knives from 6" to 13" blades and the fully forged knife offerings in each category are manufactured exclusively for R. H. Forschner in Solingen, Germany. Also, there are many unique specialized knives to complete your tool collection including produce, tomato and cheese knives.
Did You Know:
A Granton edge, or "kullenschiff" edge, has hollowed out grooves on the sides of the blade. These grooves fill with the fat and juices of the product being sliced, which allows for thin, even cuts without tearing or shredding the meat.
**The NSF mark is a certification of quality assurance and hygienic design. The National Sanitation Foundation mark is proudly carried on all R.H. Forschner blades with a fibrox or nylon handle and assures you of quality and assurance to use in a commercial environment. Look for this mark. Realize that most manufacturers do not carry this seal!

- Does the job
I LOVE to cook and am avid cook; I would love to be able to purchase some more knives like my Shun, but I don't have the money at this time. This knife is a good knife that does the job.
I know this is a Cook's Illustrated, Cook's Country, and America's Test Kitchen (all the same company by the way) recommended knife, but it's a poor recommendation. After using more expensive knives this knife feels cheap and flimsy. I get the feeling that it won't hold up all that long. America's Test ... Read More

- Food Service kitchen tested
I have used this knife in a 7 day a week food service kitchen for about a year. It is absolutely the best knife I have ever used. I run it over a honing stick a couple of times before each use, and it is still as sharp as day one. As with any knife I suggest hand washing it to avoid any unnecessary wear and tear.
In need of a good chef's knife? I strongly suggest this one.
The only "con" is the plastic handle, but that is only aesthetics.
Rating: - Look no further than the Victorinox!
I have owned my 8" Forschner Victorinox knife for about 2 years. It works as well today as the day it arrived. I have had to sharpen it maybe twice since I've owned it. I am not a professional chef by any means, but this knife is worlds above the cheap knife-set knives (I think Farberware) that I had previously been using. I use this knife every day, multiple times, and it makes chopping one of my favorite parts of preparing a meal. I have given 2 away as gifts, and am back to purchase another. You will ... Read More
Rating: - Well-made, tough, and extremely sharp
This Victorinox 6-Inch Chef's knife is a great value because it is extremely sharp, holds an edge, and lasts forever. It saves money with more expensive meats because it allows you to leave the meat as intact as possible by quickly and cleanly removing only silverskin, fat, and gristle. No, it is not as good as the Wusthof 6-inch Classic Chef's knife, but the Wusthof is for cooks who are in the kitchen every single day, and the Wustof Classic series enjoys one great advantage over its other kitchen competitors ...

- Not serrated
The picture of this product is misleading, this knife is not serrated as pictured and it won't slice certain things like bread or tomatoes. This kind of knife needs sharpening every couple of weeks in order to be decent. It's going back.
Unfortunately there are no long serrated utility knives, so I was hoping this one would work. Longest I could find was 4 in.
