Product Description
The chef's knife is a kitchen staple, with a wide straight edged blade ideally suited to cutting and chopping fruits and vegetables, herbs, and so on. Some may find the 10" length too awkward and unwieldy, and for those people we recommend this slightly shorter knife. R. H. Forschner is a division of Swiss Army Brands, Inc, renowned for the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife. These knives are specially ground and tempered so that they can be resharpened over and over again, keeping a sharp edge throughout their lifetime. State of the art technology blended with old world craftsmanship produce cutting instruments of excellent quality, at reasonable prices. Forschner Victorinox Fibrox knives have earned high marks in a well-known cooking magazine which stringently tests kitchen products.

Fibrox 8" Chef's knife March 7, 2010
Stuart Big (Boston,MA USA)
I had a bias against knives that weren't forged. This inexpensive knife is extremely sharp, light weight, and the handle has a great grip. It's still new so only time will tell if it maintains the edge and can be resharpened well. In the meantime, if your considering expensive cutlery take a look at this. Give it a try. Even if you don't like it, you're not out a king's ransom.
one of the best I have ever used March 3, 2010

I have ALWAYS loved forschner knives, I worked as a professional chef for better than 25 years, and I have to say I POSITIVELY HATE plastic handled knives,...I ALWAYS bought rosewood. A fellow chef suggested that I give the "black fibrox" handled knives a shot, it might change my mind on the plastic,......well, he was right,...the handle stays "grippy" even with your hands covered in oil, chicken fat, water, flour,...it didn't matter, the handle ALWAYS stayed "grippy",...amazing.
also the design of the "grip area" where the handle meets the blade was DESIGNED by someone who held a knife everyday for a long time, it takes NO pressure to grip, and the balance is perfect for fast chopping, or mincing "pepin style".
I'll be ordering more of the fibrox handles in the near future

Forschner/Victorinox, Fibrox Handle 8" Chef's knife... By far best bang for the buck out there! Bought it for my wife to use, don't trust her with my Forged Victorinox 10". CRAZY Sharp, Super light, well balanced! I prefer the handle feel on my forged but, I could get used to it for the price! Priced like China but, Swiss Made!!!
