Victorinox 47520 Fibrox 8-Inch Chef’s Knife Review & My Opening:

The hundreds of customers who wrote reviews for this chef’s knife gave it an average rating of 4.8 stars, and all of them gave it ratings of 4.0 and 5.0 stars. This is among the most promising reviews ever given to a knife. One of the reviewers even pointed out that the Victorinox 47520, also known as Forschner for its business partner since 1937, was rated by Cooks magazine as the “best overall” knife for Fall 2004 with its lighter weight being preferred by the magazine’s testers and worked effectively at basic tasks just like the more expensive models. The reviewer then bought one of these and tested it himself. He loved how it was already razor sharp when it first arrived, and had a strong-grip handle that made it easy to use even in wet or awkward positions. The blade also reportedly had a nice rocked contour which made chopping and dicing easier.

Many other users commended how it did not take much effort to slice through anything using this knife, from day-old French bread to fruits to just about anything.

Many of the buyers bought this knife to give as gifts to loved ones who enjoyed cooking, and they all got back positive remarks. The knife was reportedly consistently sharp and very easy to run through the sharpening steel.

Interestingly, one of the buyers had the experience of having about a quarter inch of the tip break off. It had been beyond the online shop 30-day return period, but it turned out Victorinox was more than willing to replace it as part of their lifetime guarantee.

All in all, all the reviewers would happily guarantee you a good experience in buying this knife, and unless you are really loyal to the more expensive brands, they would highly recommend this over those, as they have proven the great value for the investment for this chef’s knife.

You will certainly be pleased with the efficient cutting you get from this knife.
