Crafted with a comfortable handle, superior weight and balance, and a razor sharp edge that rarely requires re-sharpening, this knife is an essential tool for every kitchen.KEY FEATURES High-quality, lightweight European steel. Handle design reduces hand and wrist fatigue. Fit for dicing, mincing, chopping, slicing, and shredding. Long, sloping curved blade that “rocks” for effortless mincing and chopping. Flat spine for extra power to slice through hard-skinned items. Hand polished rosewood handle for a secure and comfortable grip no matter the hand size. Dishwasher safe & easy to sharpen. CARE AND USEBe good to your knives and they’ll be good to you. Following these simple guidelines will ensure that you get the longest life out of your knife! CLEANINGVictorinox Swiss Army recommends washing all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately. While Fibrox Pro knives are dishwasher safe, we recommend hand washing as dishwashers are designed to spray water at a relatively high pressure, which can jostle the silverware and cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge.SHARPENINGFor optimum performance, knives should be honed after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knives sharper and performing at their best.FORMERLY FORSCHNERIn 1937 Victorinox began selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut distributor called R.H. Forschner & Co. A well-known manufacturer of butcher scales, Forschner soon became the exclusive U.S. distributor for Victorinox knives, and was the name by which Victorinox knives were known. Review: I am not a super chef, but am a bit of a knife ... - I am not a super chef, but am a bit of a knife fan who of late has been doing TONS of research on knives, kitchen and otherwise. I am going to start with the one annoying thing, and it is a very common annoying thing. The packaging is the gawd-awful plastic clam shell. I hate it to the deepest core of my blacken soul. In the name of all that is decent could the manufacturer please just put it in a lil cardboard box that is easy to open. Please... Now the good... First impression: pretty, the rosewood handle is quite nice with a lovely wood grain. The blade is shiny and mirror like at high angles, a very dull mirror like straight on. Decent amount of weight, but not feather light, which I like. The feel of the handle is fantastic. I am not a petite fellow, and normally wear large to xlarge gloves, for whatever that means, and the handle felt great in my hand. Full, good width and length. Just felt great. I could wax poetic on the fullness of hand and supple curves for moments on end, but just let it be known, this is one of the better feeling knives I have held, yet that does encompass a very small sample.... tldr, it feels good. Came pretty frickin sharp. I am sharp freak, I have stones, and sharpen pretty regularly, at least compared to all others I know who NEVER sharpen their knives. My first cutting was for breakfast, so not a lot of stuff, but a couple of jalapenos and a big bell pepper. I did not need to do any more than direct the knife, no pressure and it sliced through, thin and thick slices, lengthwise, just glided through with no pressure other than the knife. I was pretty impressed. Also, for other largish handed individuals, one thing that many of us encounter with knives is the depth of the blade is so shallow, that when chopping/rocking our knuckles/fingers bang into the cutting board. In my limited experience so far that has not been an issue at all, good clearance with the slightly taller blade. All in all, the reviews that rave on and on are well worthwhile. If you are considering it, other than that crappy clam shell packing, it is a great knife, go for it. Review: VICTORINOX MAKES NICE KITCHEN KNIVES - All the Victorinox kitchen knives are great for the price. I've paid a lot more for kitchen knives but I only use the Victorinox knives now. They hold their edge well, even on a blade that is so thin that I can slice a tomato transparently thin. That's when I really enjoy the Victorinox knives. They make great $50 gifts for friends and family but I always warn them that these knives are sharp and easy to keep sharp. ## Features - ELEGANCE FOR WORK & HOME.

I've paid a lot more for kitchen knives but I only use the Victorinox knives now. They hold their edge well, even on a blade that is so thin that I can slice a tomato transparently thin. That's when I really enjoy the Victorinox knives. They make great $50 gifts for friends and family but I always warn them that these knives are sharp and easy to keep sharp. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great blade, looks great, price is right *by A***A on January 31, 2016* Wow. Where do I begin? This is only my second chef knife. I was back and forth between this version and the fibrox version, but settled in this one due to preferring the look and feel of a wood grip. I'm no expert on knives, but I love when things work the way they are meant to and I'm obsessive about efficiency. This knife is a dream to use. The blade shape: perfect size. The curved edge allows a really nice rocking motion that helps you cut veggies and meat faster. Sharpness: This thing arrives INSANELY sharp. I put it to the test cutting a sweet potato. You would have thought sweet potatoes weren't sweet potatoes...I know that's a weird way to put it, but my least favorite thing about sweet potatoes was cutting them. Actually I cut the end off my thumb accidentally, because this is such a good knife you can prep food really fast. I am dumb, I know. The good news is as soon as I wrapped up my thumb, I wanted to get right back to cutting up veggies. The grip: BEAUTIFUL rosewood. I'm sure it's not the same quality as a Victorinox from 30 years ago, but I've had no issue. I highly recommend some sort of cover for the blade. I never use a block, but there are other options available. There are plastic guards for the blade or you can keep it in one of those rolled up pouches. I keep mine in a drawer currently, but I want to wait until I have more good knives to find a good solution. This review is a bit all over the place, because I'm not great at reviewing things. But in conclusion, if you are looking to upgrade your go-to knife, and your cooking enjoyment, you will not be disappointed with this knife. Its a joy to use. ## Frequently Bought Together - Victorinox 12-Inch Chef's Knife, Rosewood Handle - Victorinox 10" Chef's, Rosewood - Victorinox 6" Professional Boning Knife, Curved Blade, Semi-stiff, Maple Wood Handle 5.6606.15 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/4473777-12-inch-chefs-knife-rosewood-handle](https://www.desertcart.no/products/4473777-12-inch-chefs-knife-rosewood-handle) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-10-20*
