Product Description

The R.H. Forschner collection has grown in size and stature since its name was first carved in steel in 1855. Historically a premier choice of culinary professionals, it is still preferred by professionals today. Renowned for its extremely sharp, Swiss made, steel blades from Victorinox, R.H. Forschner provides professionals in food processing and preparation with superior quality, value-priced cutlery that enhances performance and increases productivity. They are manufactured in Switzerland. The renowned rosewood handles feature a carved handle design with the unique beauty of natural rosewood and are extra durable. The fibrox handles feature a non slip, ergonomic design and are NSF approved. The blades feature a high-carbon no stain steel with the unique Victorinox polished surface and a taper ground edge. You can choose from a complete collection of cooks knives from 6" to 13" blades and the fully forged knife offerings in each category are manufactured exclusively for R. H. Forschner in Solingen, Germany. Did You Know: A Granton edge, or "kullenschiff" edge, has hollowed out grooves on the sides of the blade. These grooves fill with the fat and juices of the product being sliced, which allows for thin, even cuts without tearing or shredding the meat. **The NSF mark is a certification of quality assurance and hygienic design. The National Sanitation Foundation mark is proudly carried on all R.H. Forschner blades with a fibrox or nylon handle and assures you of quality and assurance to use in a commercial environment. Look for this mark. Realize that most manufacturers do not carry this seal!

Customer Reviews

Great knife for the price
I bought this knife about 6 months ago and I couldn't be happier. Is my daily use knife at the restaurant where I work. It's sharp, very light,easy to handle and really confortable. My co-workers are crazy about it too, I wouldn't trade it for any knife in that same price range.
If you want everything that an expensive knife offers but you don't have the money, this one of the best options out there, it really does the job.

Great knife, terrific seller
I bought this knife because not only did was it rated very highly by a food magazine that I trust, but it came with a choice of colors for the handle - utilitarian and cool! And the seller is the best - wonderful communication and utterly fabulous customer service...can't beat it!

8" Chef's
Probably the best all around chef's knife @ about 20% of the cost of some lesser knives
