Handcrafted in Switzerland by Victorinox, Makers of the Original Swiss Army Knife, this chef’s knife brings together Swiss engineering and timeless natural beauty, making it a favorite among professionals and passionate home cooks alike.
At the core of this knife is an 8-inch plain edge chef’s blade made from Victorinox Proprietary stainless steel. Known for its exceptional sharpness, easy maintenance, and corrosion resistance, this blade is built to handle everything from slicing and dicing to chopping and mincing with ease. The razor-sharp edge is expertly ground to provide clean, effortless cuts across meats, vegetables, herbs, and more, while the slight curve along the belly of the blade makes rocking motions feel natural and smooth.
With a .06-inch blade thickness and weighing 8.8 ounces, this chef’s knife delivers the perfect combination of agility and heft. It feels substantial in the hand, giving you the confidence and control needed for more demanding prep work, without feeling too heavy during longer sessions at the cutting board. The hidden tang design contributes to the knife’s elegant lines and solid, well-balanced feel, ensuring every motion is deliberate and efficient.
What truly sets this version apart is the rosewood handle. Smooth, rich, and warm to the touch, the handle adds a touch of classic refinement that transforms everyday food prep into a more tactile, satisfying experience. Each piece of rosewood is naturally unique, offering subtle grain variations and a comfortable grip that improves with age. Shaped for ergonomics and visual appeal, the handle not only looks beautiful on display but also feels perfectly at home in the hand.
