Product Description

A great all-rounder. The 8" Swiss Classic Chef’s Knife with Granton Blade can handle nearly every kitchen task imaginable, with its incredibly sharp edge and textured, ergonomic handle, each cut is like slicing through butter.

We’ve selected the best attributes derived from our rich commercial heritage and modified them to suit the home chef. The Victorinox Swiss Army Swiss Classic collection offers a contemporary handle, inspired by our patented Fibrox Pro line. Designed to minimize wrist tension while providing a secure grip, the contoured nylon handle is both lightweight and durable, making these knives seem less likes tools and more like an extension of your hand.

The Granton blade, also referred to as a hollow edge or fluted edge, features hollowed-out grooves or dimples on both sides on the blade. Depending on what is being cut, these grooves will fill with juices or create pockets of air, which prevents food from sticking to the blade and creates less friction to allow for easier motion when chopping or slicing. Even with the grooves, these are still straight-edge knives and can be honed with a sharpening steel, so they can remain razor sharp at all times. The tapered knife edge is ground in two directions to hold a sharp edge longer and can easily be brought back to its original sharpness.

An all-purpose chef's knife is an essential tool in every kitchen. The 8" Swiss Classic Chef’s Knife with Granton Blade takes it one step further, offering additional functionality. Optimally weighted with high-quality, lightweight European steel that reduces hand and wrist fatigue, this knife is comfortable even after extended use in the home kitchen. Perfectly suited for chopping or dicing onions, beets, or potatoes, mincing shallots, crushing garlic on the side of the blade, and slicing meats of all varieties, especially ham, smoked salmon, roasts, and poultry. Its versatility will quickly make it your go-to knife.

At 8 inches, this knife offers the heft needed to complete larger tasks effortlessly, while still allowing for perfect maneuverability on smaller tasks that a larger, bulkier knife may not be able to accomplish as easily. The overall shape of the blade, with a long, sloping curve, lends itself to “rocking” very well, allowing one to mince and chop with ease, while the flat spine allows you to comfortably press down on the blade when extra power is needed to slice through hard-skinned items like acorn, or butternut squash.

Whether a seasoned, or novice home chef, Victorinox Swiss Army offers not only the right tools and the know-how, but most importantly, the confidence to achieve one’s culinary aspirations. Expertly crafted in Switzerland since 1884, Victorinox offers a lifetime guarantee against defects in material and workmanship.

Please NOTE that this item ships with the International item number 6.8083.20 on the blade and not 6.8083.20US1, but is the same 8" Swiss Classic Chef's Knife with Granton Blade.
