The Victorinox 10-inch Cimeter Knife is a professional butchery tool engineered to overcome the challenges of portioning large quantities of raw poultry, where standard straight blades may cause resistance or tearing. While traditional knives require multiple strokes, this specialized 10-inch cimeter features a pronounced curve and a pointed tip designed for smooth, continuous pulling motions. This profile is essential for high-volume poultry processing, allowing users to break down whole turkeys or slice large chicken breasts into uniform portions with maximum efficiency and yield.
Crafted from Victorinox’s signature high-carbon stainless steel and ice-tempered for maximum sharpness, the blade is conically ground to ensure a razor-sharp edge with superior retention. The stamped construction results in a 7.2-ounce tool that provides a balanced blend of rigid control and agile maneuverability. The pointed tip is a strategic design feature that allows for precise piercing and seam-cutting, while the 10-inch length provides the necessary reach to fabricate large birds in a single, fluid motion without damaging delicate muscle fibers.
The utility of this professional tool is anchored by the patented yellow Fibrox handle, which provides a locked-in, slip-resistant grip even when hands are wet or greasy. As part of an international HACCP-compliant color-coding system, the yellow handle is strictly reserved for raw poultry, providing a clear visual cue to prevent cross-contamination in commercial kitchens. The ergonomic shape is contoured to minimize wrist tension during extended shifts, translating every movement directly to the curved edge for total control.
