Victorinox 8-Piece Knife Block Set : Product Description
The R H Forschner by Victorinox 8-piece Block Set includes: 4-inch
Paring Knife, 6-inch Boning Knife, 8-inch Chef's Knive, 8-inch Bread
Knive, 10-inch Slicing Knife, 10-inch Sharpening Steel, Kitchen Shears
and Slant Hardwood Block. All 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.
