Victorinox Knives:
Whether a seasoned, or novice home chef,
Victorinox 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.
Formerly Forschner
In 1937 Victorinox began
selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut
distributor called R.H. Forschner & Co. A
well-known manufacturer of butcher scales,
Forschner soon became the exclusive U.S.
distributor for Victorinox knives, and was the
name by which Victorinox knives were known.
In 2011 Victorinox began
marketing all its product lines, including
kitchen knives, under the common umbrella name
by which the company is now popularly known –
Victorinox Swiss Army.
Care and Use
Be good to your knives and they’ll be
good to you. Following these simple guidelines
will ensure that you get the longest life out of
your knife!
Hand Washing
Victorinox Swiss Army recommends washing
all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash
your knives with a soapy cloth and dry
immediately.
Dishwasher
While Fibrox Pro knives are dishwasher
safe, we recommend hand washing as dishwashers
are designed to spray water at a relatively high
pressure, which can jostle the silverware and
cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge.
Maintaining
your Knife’s Edge
For optimum performance, knives should be honed
after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent
use of a knife steel will keep your knives
sharper and performing at their best, but
remember that a honing steel will not sharpen a
dull knife. Knife (honing) steels are
maintenance tools and are used to help keep an
already sharp blade from degrading. During use,
a knife edge becomes rolled or turned from
direct.
