Design

These Victorinox blades, hand-finished in Switzerland, are constructed of high-carbon, no-stain steel, with a full tang for superior strength and balance. The knives will retain their sharp edges and also come with a sharpener to easily keep them sharp. All the utensils feature black fibrox handles, molded in an ergonomic shape that is designed to reduce wrist tension over extended periods of use. Also, the handle has a non-slip grip for the beginner chef.

This set come with designated slots in the solid hardwood block for every knife, and it’s angled for quick access. The cutlery in the set is dishwasher-safe, although washing by hand is recommended.

Performance

Many of the 5 star reviews on Amazon talk about how long this knife set has lasted them. They talk about how easy it is to keep the knives sharp for everyday use. When we used them to cut vegetables and steaks up with them, they cut through them as well as higher end set. Don’t let the “plastic” handle look fool you, these knives are a great quality and they come with a lifetime warranty.

Summary

We have labeled this knife set as a “Best Buy” for the under $200 range. Victorinox has a lot of other sets ranging from a 7 piece set, all the way up to a 22 piece set. These sets range in price between about $120 and $270. We can assure you, however, that this knife set has a knife for any cutting task. If you are looking at knife sets in the $200 price range, then look no further!
