Victorinox Forschner 4 3/4" Kitchen Utility Knife

Who is Victorinox?
Although Victorinox is known the world over as the creator of the Original Swiss Army Knife, the company started out in 1884 as a cutlery workshop. By the time company creator Karl Elsener delivered his first pocket knife to the Swiss Army, his cutlery business was already booming. Over the next century, Victorinox cutlery became a top-rated choice among professionals worldwide, with over 300 blades to offer.

Utility: An all-purpose knife often referred to as a sandwich knife, the utility knife peels and slices fruits and vegetables, and even carves small meats.

A sharp 6” utility knife is most efficient for slicing non-solid fruits and vegetables, such as tomatoes or squash.  For acid fruits, a stainless steel blade is preferred.  Useful for cutting large melon rings, cutting heads of lettuce into wedges, preparing cabbage for shredding, halving grapefruits and oranges, etc. A tomato knife has a serrated edge which is ideal for cutting tomato. It has a fork style tip to pick up the tomato after it is cut.
