Know before you buy
While 10 inches is a standard length for professional butchery, it is excellent for home cooks who frequently break down large cuts of meat, such as whole chickens, roasts, or briskets. If you primarily work with smaller portions, you may find a shorter blade easier to maneuver.
FIBROX is a thermoplastic elastomer that provides a non-slip grip, even when your hands are wet or greasy. It is designed for safety and comfort during repetitive cutting tasks, making it a staple in professional kitchens.
No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. High-heat cycles and harsh detergents can dull the blade and damage the handle material, so we recommend hand washing and drying it immediately after use.
Stamped blades are thinner and lighter than forged knives, which makes this butcher knife agile and less fatiguing to use for extended periods. Because it is high-carbon stainless steel, it maintains a sharp edge well while remaining easy to hone.
Yes, Victorinox knives are known for their factory-sharp edges. You should be able to use it for meat preparation immediately, though you will need to maintain the edge with a honing steel over time.
