Questions & Answers
It's made in Switzerland, I believe, and everyone I've recommended it to has loved it!
Yes, I believe so. However, each time you do this, you'll lose a little of the serration - I'm not aware of a home knife sharpener that keeps the serration level. br>br>I do know that my parents' Victorinox knives with a smooth blade have been sharpened at home for decades and are still in perfect working order and of excellent quality. br>I believe the serrated ones become less serrated with each passing year - However, they still slice through butter like a hot knife.
I don't think so. This knife is an absolute steal in my opinion, and I adore it. I cut my finger three times in the first couple of days because it was so sharp. I've had it for a few months and use it every day. It's still as sharp as the day I got it, so you can't go wrong with it.
My old steak knives are over 40 years old and still in good working order. I have no idea what or who cut out is, so I'm afraid I can't make any comparisons.
Selected User Reviews For Victorinox Swiss Classic 4.5 Inch Serrated Utility Steak Knife with Red Handle
I've been looking for a nice sharp knife to replace a knife I have that I can no longer find. This knife has a razor-sharp edge! I've cut myself three times with it (no fault of the knife). I like the knife because of its sharpness, but it seems "wambly" or "unsteady" when slicing through something firm, such as a potato. I don't regret purchasing this knife, and I use it regularly, but I would not purchase another. I'd prefer a stiffer blade, and the handle is small, making it slippery if your hands are wet. It could use a better gripping handle.
Do I really need a tomato knife, and how is it different from a regular kitchen knife?br>br>First and foremost, you ask far too many questions. Second, if you eat tomatoes, grow tomatoes, or have ever passed a tomato, this knife is a must-have! It cuts tomatoes with such ease that it's almost unbelievable. The serrated blade easily cuts through the tomato skin. And the price. . . It was so good that I bought one for my lovely girlfriend and scored major brownie points (wink wink). br>br>Don't second-guess yourself; just buy it now and thank me later.
If you like tomatoes, this is a good product to buy because it slices well and doesn't squishes or tears. I actually have two, one that I purchased years ago and the other that I recently acquired. I've even given them away as presents. Yes, this little gem is one of my favorites!.
They're workhorses who show up ready to fight - br>br> They are not made "on-site" by a Swiss brand. the- cheap" - and will last for decades in the dishwasher. The ones I remember from my childhood are probably still with my parents. These aren't the kind of knives you'll have to throw away because they've seen better days. You'll misplace them, lose them, leave them at potlucks, and so on. br>br>They're also great as gifts!.
The blade remains sharp for a long time, and the handle is a good size. It is extremely useful. br>For college, I gave each of my children a Victorinox set. They all lasted the entire four years, including this 4" knife, a 3" paring knife, and a 6" chef knife. When we gave them as Christmas gifts to family and friends, they were very well received. br>We discovered that Victorinox's inexpensive knives provide a lot of utility. I'd suggest it.
For the price, I wasn't expecting much, but this looks like it came from Dollar Tree! The handle is flimsy and looks cheap. I went to Bed Bath and Beyond and found a set of two awesome knives for the same price, complete with blade covers, and the return process was simple as usual.
Because of the Victorinox name, I bought this knife. It was a bad decision. The knife came with a dangerously difficult-to-remove plastic adhesive. It leaves difficult-to-remove spotted stains on the blade. After using hot soapy water, paint thinner, and WD-80, I gave up on removing the stain. I'm 40 years old and have a nice cut on my thumb, which is why I'm writing this review with one hand:.
Wife enjoys it, with the exception that she claims it is bad for tomatoes but great for cheese. br>In fact, she claims it is superior to any other cheese knife we own. br>br>So I'm keeping it! br>br>If the name was changed, it would be a 5 star rating!.
