Victorinox Swiss Classic 8" Carving Knife

The Swiss Classic 8" Carving Knife by Victorinox features an ergonomic handle that fits nicely in your hand, as well as a sharp blade that holds its edge. Victorinox knives all have high carbon, stainless steel blades that are hand finished at Victorinox in Switzerland by skilled craftsmen. Each knife is stamped from a single sheet of metal. The blade is then hardened, tempered, ground, polished, etched and finished. Victorinox uses a special tempering process to produce an edge that can be resharpened over and over again. The contemporary handles of Swiss Classic knives are inspired by the patented fibrox handles of Victorinox's professional knives, which are the preferred tools of chefs around the world. Swiss Classic handles are NSF approved, with minimal crevices to offer hospitality to bacteria. The long, narrow blade of this 8" carving (or slicing) knife is allows for long, clean slices through meat such as roast turkey, leg of lamb or any other large cut of meat, preventing the need for sawing through the meat and creating jagged cuts. The pointed tip is ideal for close work around bones and joints.
