R H. Forschner Cutlery | Home » » Victorinox Cutlery 9-Inch Wavy Edge Bread Knife, Black Polypropylene Handle | | | | | | | Description: | | The R H Forschner by Victorinox Bread 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. | | | Features: | |
• High carbon stainless steel blade can be resharpened over and over
• Ergonomically designed handle
• Will stand up to years of daily use without undue deterioration or wear
• Fibrox Handle is dishwasher safe and slip resistant
• NSF Approved

Looked Around Before I Bought This OneSep 07, 2011
By Toasterman
Before I bought, I read a lot of Amazon reviews on the 10.25 inch Victorinox 47547. I have an old, 8" Chicago Cutlery bread knife that is kinda dull. I wanted a new bread knife, and I thought I wanted a longer blade. Two things in those otherwise great reviews caught my attention: the blade "was not too rigid," and it "was sharpened on only one side." (The reviewers said the knife being sharpened on only one side would cause the blade to drift offline during a cut--and I thought I was a perfectionist!). This "offline" complaint drove me to seriously consider the Wustoff (the $126 model--so I wouldn't have to put up with those aggravating offline cuts). But before I spent that much money, I went to see one at a local store. Lo and behold, the Wustoff blade--the $126 one--is sharpened on only one side! (My guess is, all wavy-edge, serrated knife blades are sharpened this way... so much for perfect cuts.) Once I found out about one-sided sharpening on all the blades I was considering, the $26 Victorinox models were looking very good. Because I've noticed that my knuckles get in the way when I slice, I ended up getting the Victorinox 9-Inch Wavy Edge Bread Knife, with the offset handle. Its blade is plenty thick and stiff, and very sharp. I now enjoy slicing bread without having to manipulate a straight knife because of my knuckles. And, at this price, I can afford to buy a new knife every time one gets dull. PS: My freehand, thin bread slices are an even thickness from top-to-bottom and side-to-side.

Great great serrated knife!Aug 17, 2010

It's the best I've ever owned. The Z shape helps keeping your knucles off of the cutting board and the blade can handle any job with maestry!

 Good lower-budget bread/sandwich knifeJan 21, 2009
By Poor Student
This knife cuts like its more famous sibling, the R H. Forschner by Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Curved Blade Bread Knife. I happen to like how the other performs, so I later bought this offset, slightly shorter bread knife and brought it to my workplace for cutting sandwiches and bread. The blade obviously does not have the heft of (way) more expensive bread knives, and it can flex a bit, but its performance is definitely a tremendous step up from the similarly priced one that my coworkers and I had been using previously at work.

The Perfect Bread KnifeDec 31, 2010
By Scott
I buy a lot of freshly baked bread and find that having a good bread knife is a must. For me this knife has the trifecta: It is well balanced, has a comfortable grip, and slices effortlessly. I also really like the raised handle as it makes it easier for me to cut slices of bread with an even thickness. Victorinox has a reputation for making high quality knives at a good price and this offering does not disappoint.

By D. Eskinazi
Very happy with my purchase. The knife works brilliantly. I really like the offset handle. I would purchase again...but I don't think i'll have to.
