Pros & Cons
Pros
Victorinox makes a nice plastic sheath, and if this knife came with that and a box, it'd be an awesome combination. Knife is well balanced and sharp. The knife is so sharp i didn't even have to cut through the packaging with a pair of scissors.
It handles well, and seems like the perfect weight for me. The wood handle is comfortable in my hand, and looks much nicer than the plastic handle. It has a great profile for rocking-- my preferred style of cutting-- and i like the feel of the wooden ... Read More
This is by far the sharpest kitchen knife i ever used. I wash it by hand (which just takes seconds) and this knife is still like brand new. America's test kitchen isn't wrong this is a best choice for a chef knife.

Get the knives - they're a bargain, and they're a sharp 15 degrees!
It's not like those few words are going to hurt their profits.
Shipping
I sent them the amazon link where i originally purchased and they sent me a screenshot showing that the purchase was made from ... Read More
I double checked and it was ordered from the link i sent.
Packaging/appearance
The only improvement i can think of is packaging.
I used it once and it was sharp right out of the packaging (heavy plastic, like you might see electronics come in).
The knife is so sharp i didn't even have to cut through the packaging with a pair of scissors.
For some unknown but inadequate reason, victorinox apparently doesn't believe in telling you that anywhere on the packaging or ... Read More
