Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is my all-time favorite kitchen knife (the Forschner / Victorinox Steak Utility Knife, 4 3/4 in Straight, Rosewood Handle, pointed Tip Model 40002 ). The blade is strong, yet thin. This thin-ness makes it ideal for many many jobs, as it slices through fruits and vegetables much easier than a knife with a thicker blade. The size of the knife makes it good for paring & peeling, general kitchen use, or as a fine steak knife at the table.
The quality of the steel is excellent. It takes a razor edge when sharpening and holds the edge for a good period of time. I have one of these knives that is over 15 years old, it gets used multiple times every day, and it is still in excellent condition.
For sharpening, I use a Chef's Choice 120 (with 3-stage honing/polishing). Then I use a sharpening steel, and after that a ceramic sharpening steel. Then the edge is as good as it was when it came fresh from the factory. I have never needed to use the coarse honing stage of the 120 on my 15-year old blade, just the two finest honing stages. (Note - I don't like the Chef's Choice 130 - it has only two-stage honing, and the built-in sharpening steel does nowhere near as good a job as a hand-held steel. The 3-stage honing of the 120 is much better).
