Product Description

The R H Forschner by Victorinox cheese Knife features high carbon, stainless steel blade, hand finished at Victorinox in Switzerland by skilled craftsmen. A special tempering process is used to produce an edge that can be resharpened over and over again, so the knife can keep its original sharpness throughout the entire life of the blade. Victorinox handles are ergonomically designed to minimize wrist tension. They provide a natural fit. A good heft and comfortable, positive grip are indications of a well-made knife. A sure-grip handle with a finger guard is valuable feature since the handle inevitably gets greasy, wet, or both. Although cutlery steel is naturally sanitary, materials and construction details of the handle minimize crevices what would offer hospitality to bacteria.

This review is from: Victorinox Cutlery 4.25-Inch with Fork Tip Cheese Knife, Black Polypropylene Handle (Kitchen)

I'm a fan of the Victorinox/Forschner line and have several of their products. I'm happy with the steak knives, paring knives and the 8" chef's knife has been a solid performer.

However, this knife was a let down. The edge was painfully dull and thick. It was more like a standard butter knife than a cheese knife. Even for cutting semi-soft cheeses, this knife was unimpressive. It smashed brie and camembert instead of slicing it. The only useful application for this knife would be for triple creams and very soft (cream cheese type) cheeses.
