Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

These are very sharp right out of the box, lightweight, and well made. We have prime filets which had been in the sous vide for 2 hours (so tender as it was) and it was amazing how these sliced through them.

Always wash these knives by hand, never in the dishwasher. Both knives and sharpener are number one rated by cook's country. Have used victorinox knifes for cooking and camping.

Packaging/appearance


These knives were well packaged and have a very sharp edge.


Admittedly, when submitted to a sniff test immediately upon opening the box, there was a barely detectable odor on the wood, wh...  Read More


But the packaging is cheap and i had to spend nearly an hour removing the glue from the wood handles that stuck from the tape t...  Read More


(true, the packaging was flimsy, but knives need to be stored in a wooden block, which if purchased together with the knives wo...  Read More

Competitiveness


I bought them because i already have 4 or 5 other victorinox kitchen knives: you really can't go wrong with this brand.


I recently decided to give up my matchy-matchy knife block and get a few pieces that were great in function regardless of brand.
