Editorial Reviews: The R H Forschner by Victorinox Paring Knife Set includes: 3.25-inch Straight Edge Parer, 2.25-inch Bird's Beak Parer and 3.25-inch Wavy Edge Parer. All feature high carbon, stainless steel blades, 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. Although cutlery steel is naturally sanitary, materials and construction details of the handle minimize crevices what would offer hospitality to bacteria.
Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Great little knives Comment: We love these little knives. I bought two of the paring knives and when my son, who loves to cook, went to college, he asked to take one with him. That gave me an excuse to buy this set. It's a great deal for very nice home cooking equipment. Customer Rating: Summary: Teeny handles Comment: The blade is great, as expected. But.... the handles!!!! They seem to be sized for kindergarten-sized hands. If Victorinox put the same fibrox handles found on their larger knives on these paring knives, they would have an unbeatable winner. So be forewarned: if you have large hands, you will find these uncomfortable to use; otherwise they are a great addition to your knife collection. Customer Rating: Summary: Ordering a second set Comment: Had these for 8 months, now, and still haven't needed to sharpen. When they get "dull," a light steeling is all they need. Ordering another set tonight so I can always have clean ones at hand. These knives, and all the Victorinox/Forschner stamped-steel kitchen knives I've owned, are very sharp out of the box, of course. Some people say they dull quickly, and the ad copy says they're easily "sharpened." I've found that they don't "dull" quickly, but they do get "unsharp" somewhat faster than other knives I have. The remedy I've used over and over, and what I think the ad copy should have referred to, rather than sharpening, is steeling. My Forschner knives seem to need it more often than others, and seem to respond to it better, and more quickly, than others, including my high-quality forged knives from Wusthof and Henckels. I wouldn't be surprised if the Forschner blades are ground at a shallower angle than some. All I know is that they're sharp when I need them, even if it does take a few quick flicks on the steel. Customer Rating: Summary: amazing for the price Comment: These are very good knives. sharp. nice build. great price. the only reason i didnt give them a 5 star is cause im sure there are better knives out there . they just probably cost ten times the price. Customer Rating: Summary: Sharp reasonable cost Comment: Knives are priced reasonably and are very sharp. I ordered 1 set and decided to order an additional set.
