Forget the cheap grocery store paring knives. This knife works better, is easier to handle, and is more accurate than other knives that sell for as much as 10x the price. I use these knives daily for various tasks like slicing tomatoes, apples, lemons, onions, etc. I keep one at my desk at work and it's come in handy for healthy snacking on the job. It's so inexpensive that it easily pays for itself instantly in usefulness. A great product!

The R H. Forschner by Victorinox knives are excellent. All of them!
I have been using these knives for years and every type of them are all great. They are super light in weight and super sharp. I use five different ones. The blades are thin and slide right through the food. I often use them to eat with also. They have come out with some that the handles are impregnated with something that makes them stay germ free.

I've looked for this knife for a while. Had one, loved it and couldn't find another. Amazon came through. I ordered it on a thursday and
,believe it or not, the knife came to my house on saturday. Couldn't have been easier!
What more can I Say?

I love these knives - but they are extremely sharp especially when brand new - almost like a razor blade!! Use a cutting board, don't cut toward your hand or fingers (I know we should all know this but speaking just for myself I don't always follow this rule and have cut myself a couple of times!). I probably shouldn't tell this but have also used these knives to cut through plastic and rubber. The bread knife is also a must have and works great for slicing bagles as well as soft and hard breads. Dishwasher safe and stay sharp even after MANY years of use.

This knife cuts well except for the fact that the blade doesn't seem to stay straight when you cut with it. This is especially noticeable when you are cutting something hard like a carrot. Instead of the blade cutting straight down it cuts at an angle. I actually wound up cutting my figure because of it. I returned the first knife, thinking that I had just gotten a knife with a crooked blade. However, the replacement is doing the same thing.
