The R H Forschner by Victorinox Slicing Knife features high carbon, stainless steel blade, 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.

 "a little pricey for a block of wood with slots, but..." 2008-11-29
By Living in Budapest (Budapest, Hungary (originally Ann Arbor, MI))
I recently started upgrading my knives to R.H. Forschner by Victorinox. I didn't continue with the block from my old set because the large 8' Chef's knife did not fit properly. I was concerned that someone might inadvertently cut himself/herself. I assumed (correctly) that my new Victorinox knives would fit this particular block would. In fact I just noticed that there is Forschner by Victorinox set that includes this block plus the knives. In the end I am happy with this knife storage block. It is stylish and very functional.

 "Knives." 2008-10-24
By Brian Lange (Chicago, IL)
Not razor sharp out of the box, like some reviewers have attested to... but sharp enough.



This is a pretty good set, it comes with a small variety of knives that should prove efficient enough for any intermediate chef. I typically consider myself a pretty well versed cook, I usually just cook for myself and friends during social gatherings at my house. One doesn't *need* a million different knives in order to cook a good meal, but it's really nice to have different options. I feel that this set is just about right for the cook at home chef.



My set was complete, the block is in great condition- with a couple extra slots for more knives- and the Victorinox logo was intact (raised button-like logo)... that's what you're paying for, right? The logo!



Though the knives are not forged from tip to handle, the grip and handles of the knives seem to be very sturdy and well made. The handles do have a pleasant feel to them, slicing dicing and slashing has never been more fun.



Like I said, I am not a big knife connoisseur, I received these knives as a gift... but I do like them a great deal. They're definitely an improvement on the $20 set you might buy at your local Sears. But I'd venture to say you could probably find a set just as nice for a little bit cheaper. Company loyalty prevents me from saying anything too negative about Victorinox. But in my experience they have a good reputation for making long lasting products.

 "rip off.." 2008-09-05
By T. Dimitrova (New York,NY)
We received these knifes from our wedding registry and I feel sorry for the person who bought them for us,because they wasted their money. First of all the set was in a box without any brochure, or instructions for care.Second, the wood block is not only not the original(with the Victorinox logo), but it's bigger and has slots for more knives than there are in the actual set.At first I thought there were knives missing..Not to mention that the slots are all different sizes than the knives included in the set and they don't fit properly.AND the pair of scissors is NOT victorinox at all....Very disappointed..

 "average knifes.not as heavy steel as the single i had purchased earlier" 2008-08-27
By S. Wuthrich (edmonton.canada)
not bad set ,but i had bought the set with the knowledge of the product but i had already purchased a knife from a chefs store and that knife was of heavier gauge yet still the same stock number? go figure,also the block was not the same as on the outside of the box. kinda disappointing since i have a long and proud swiss heritage

 "Flour Lady" 2008-08-12
By Melodee Costanzo (Alton, IL)
I am just an average person cooking day to day meals for my family.So I can not give a executive view point on these knives. But if you are more like me you will find these knives wonderful. It is like slicing air. The handles make for a nice grip and easier to control. Investing in GOOD knives has to be a good choice for us. I feel I made a good choice with these knives. You won't regret buying this set.

 "Don't let the plastic handles fool you..." 2008-07-04
By R. Rowan (Dallas, TX)
I received this set for my birthday, as a present from my girlfriend who knows nothing about cooking and less about knives. Upon inspecting the set, I was rather dubious. The plastic handles seemed cheap looking. The blades were obviously stamped, not forged. And they were lightweight, almost flimsy-feeling. However, she told me that she had learned about them from reading a rave review in an issue of my Cook's magazine, which I hold in high regard. So I put my doubts on hold until I tried the knives myself.



These are the best knives I've ever used at any price. The plastic handles are ergonomic: comfortable, non-slip, sanitary handles that fit right into your hand. The stamped blades are razor sharp. Literally: I could shave whiskers with my chef's knife (not recommended). And, yes, they are light, but not flimsy, when you choose the right knife for the job. The chef's knife makes quick work of squash with no flexing, while the boning knife has just the right amount of give for cutting the filet off a T-bone.



In short, they aren't trophy knives. They're workhorses. I appreciate also that the wood block comes with a couple extra slots so you can customize your collection. I just added a 7" santoku to mine.



Conclusion: buy these knives.

 "Great Knife Set!" 2008-11-15
By SRC (Katy, Texas)
These are very high quality and sharp knives. I was planning to buy the Henkels Four Star II, but didn't like the weight of the handles in my hands. After doing much research, I decided order and try the Victorinox knives since they had ergonomic handles, and they felt perfect in my hands. These knives should be sold in more local stores!

 "Great Gift" 2009-09-19
By Charles Chen (East Windsor, NJ)
Gave this as a gift to my brother in law for his engagement and he seemed to be really impressed by it and really like it.



I did a lot of comparisons when looking for a knife set to purchase at this price range. While I _personally_ would have preferred a smaller set of better knives (say Shuns), it seems that most people prefer a more complete set - go figure. That being the case, as I looked around on Amazon, I didn't find many knife sets at this price range that didn't have "gaps" between the block and the knives; most sets had a block that had empty slots. I also liked the more contemporary and modern lines of the knives.



As for the performance and ergonomics? I can't say - yet. But MOST people also aren't knife nuts like me and a set like this would perform as well or better than their daily use, stamped steel knives. The important thing is that your average 20-something venturing out on their own will really love this knife set for their home or apartment.

 "Swiss Army Perfection" 2008-04-28
By Island Cook (Puget Sound, WA USA)
The makers of Swiss Army Knives know their cutlery. Here is a magnificent kitchen cutlery set containing all the basics of fine knives needed in home kitchens. You cannot go wrong here. No knife stays sharp forever, it is the ability of a knife to resharpen quickly and easily that distinguishes it from cheaper knives. Victorinox uses German Solingen blades and then finishes and perfects each knife in their Swiss factory. These knives perform as well as a fine Swiss watch. No good home chef should be without them.

After receiving the rose-handled Victorinox steak knives as a wedding gift, I wanted to upgrade our storage block as well. I shopped around and couldn't beat the price, the storage capacity and the attractiveness. I would have purchased one from a different maker if made better sense. It looks great-very eye-appealing.

 "Perfect knife selection for all your foods" 2009-05-24
By A. Ritley (Texas)
I was very pleased with the quality of both the knives and the knife block. Looks very nice on the kitchen counter, yet does not have so high a profile that it cannot be placed on it's side in a locked cupboard if you have small children.



For the price of the entire collection, the quality is unsurpassed.



I highly recommend this product.

 "Unbelievable value" 2009-05-13
By Proud to be a Thinker (Illinois)
These knives are balanced, comfortable and very sharp. I am extremely impressed with the quality. Cutting is effortless. They feel very solid and sturdy. They are dishwasher safe, although I hand wash mine. There are extra spaces in the block to put some other knives or expand your Victorinox collection. Great knife set!

 "Best Knives" 2009-04-17
By Chad E. Lindsey (Spokane,wa usa)
These are the BEST knives and quite possibly the ONLY knives I'll ever use again!

Sharp, they hold a great edge, sharpen easily and will cut paper thin slices from the softest of tomatoes. The bread knives work great on any bread... I can't say enough about these knives other than if you don't have a set yet, get on it!

 "Wedding gift for daughter" 2009-03-17
By P. Brownwolfe (St, Johns, Az)
I have used this brand for going on 45 years, and when it came time to pick out something for my daughters wedding, I immediately thought of these knives. PS I carried them all the way to New Zealand where my daughter lives. She was thrilled.

 "fabulous knives" 2009-03-07
By E. Cantrell (Long Island, NY)
You will love these knives. I purchased them on a review from Cooks Illustrated, and I have to admit they are a five star knife all the way around. They feel very comfortable in your hand and unlike some handles, don't get slippery when your hand gets wet. The whole set looks very professional, with a large knife holder and if you didn't notice, the Swiss Army logo is on the front. If you are hesitant, just buy the chef's knife to see what you think. I guarantee you will buy more of the set. I am not a professional chef or anything, but I love to cook and have gone through several chef knives with many complaints. Not one complaint to date with this set.
