WengerSwibo 10-1/4-Inch Cook's Knife, Heavy Rigid Blade

Husband loves this knife! So sharp and just what he was looking for.

I own a number of Swibo knives, including the 8 and 10 inch chef version.They are good quality and last a long time between sharpening.As with any knife a good "steel" will keep the edge keen.These are not knives for "wannabee" chefs who watch cooking shows on TV - they are for people who "use" knives on a daily basis.They are good quality Swedish steel equivalent in my opinion to other brands costing 5 or more times as much.The molded-in handles WILL last a lifetime - I have Swibos that are 25 years old which get used for offshore fishing (a lot) which are still in perfect condition except of course the blades slightly smaller than new because of the sharpening process (as with any knife that is used a lot).The steel will NOT rust even in constant contact with and storage in a saltwater environment.If you have smaller hands then the 8 inch version may be a better bet for kitchen use.

Great knife por heavy duty jobs. After hours working, your wrists will appreciate the weight of the blade and ergonomic handle. It needs minimal maintenance. Also recomend to get the 10" and 12" ones depending on the working surface and prep volume you have. These products from Wenger were originally designed for butchers, so, you can imagine they are built to last long time, and work hard. Fair price because few people know about them. I started using this brand 20 years ago, as an apprentice, because my boss, a swiss chef, son of a swiss butcher by the way, recomended it to me. However, this ones are hard to find in regular stores, specially since the Victorinox-Wenger fusion. Way better than Victorinox Fibrox knives. The yellow color handle purpose is to easy locate the knives inside a sink, or working area for safety purposes (talking about butchering).

bought this for my son in law- he loves it

Awesome knife. Can't say enough good. This one will probably be the last I ever have to buy.

Having used 20$ or 30$ knives until now, despite some initial skepticism, I got this knife as a gift for my wife. We are both amazed by its performance. Normally celery, onions, peppers, meats need to be cut with a serrated edge, but this Wenger makes you feel like you're cutting with a laser! Be careful, though, I almost lost a finger cutting an onion effortlessly - don't let kids use it.

Excellent knife, I've owned other commercial knives but this is by far the sweetest one. The grip is more comfortable than any previous as well.I bought the 7" too.

xmas gift...
