Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
A Granton, or kullenschiff edge has hollowed out grooves on the side. These fill with the fat and juices of the meat being sliced, allowing for thin even cuts without tearing or shredding the meat. R. H. Forschner is a division of Swiss Army Brands, Inc, renowned for the Victorinox Swiss Army Knife. These knives are specially ground and tempered so that they can be resharpened over and over again, keeping a sharp edge throughout their lifetime. State of the art technology blended with old world craftsmanship produce cutting instruments of excellent quality, at reasonable prices. Forschner Victorinox Fibrox knives have earned high marks in a well-known cooking magazine which stringently tests kitchen products.

5 out of 5 stars It can never be to big!   February 5, 2010
R. Glatts (San Diego)
I like my knives long. This is longest one I could find. Great for carving a roast or ham or flank steak. Holds a good edge. Glad I bought it.

Don't think that a great knife has to cost big bucks ! Purchased this knife on the recommendation of "America's test kitchen" and it cuts through big peices of meat like butter. Extremely satisfied !


5 out of 5 stars Perfect for tough cuts of meat   January 31, 2010
K. Spradlin
It may seem strange to buy a fairly expensive specialty knife when we are cutting back and buying cheaper cuts of meat, but this knife has worked out perfect. I can cut paper thin, cross-grain slices like I'm slicing through butter, turning those tough but flavorful cuts into a delicious meal or to go on top of salads. Didn't pick this up until after the holidays, but thinking about cooking a large turkey breast just to test it out!


5 out of 5 stars Wonderful bargain   January 27, 2010
James N. Potts (Iowa)
This is a wonderful knife at a bargain price. Readers of Cooks Illustrated will recognize this knife as one of their top rated knives, and there's good reason. This knife is the perfect length for slicing roasts, hams, etc, with a single stroke. It comes with a nice edge right out of the box, and it holds its edge well.

This knife is proof that you _can_ make a great stamped-steel knife (even if most manufacturers don't).
