Victorinox Slicing and Carving Knives

Plain edges give the smoothest face on cooked meat; Granton hollows keep slices from sticking; serrated edges grip crusts and the bark on smoked meats. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains each, and the full range is in our Victorinox slicing knives category.

Choosing a Handle

Victorinox fits the same Swiss blades to several handles, so a shape you like can be chosen in the grip that suits your work.

Keeping the Edge

Serrated and wavy edges are not maintained on a honing steel. The points of the serrations carry the cut, so the knife keeps its bite for a long time; when it finally dulls, have it sharpened on equipment made for serrations.

Care

• Hand wash only. Wash with warm, soapy water and dry at once; do not soak the wood handle or put it in a dishwasher.
• Cut on wood or soft composite boards rather than glass, stone or ceramic.
• Store in a block, on a magnetic strip or in a sleeve such as the Victorinox Knife Safe for 8-inch to 10-inch Knives, not loose in a drawer.
