Victorinox 47529 Review: Fibrox 7-Inch Granton Edge Santoku Knife
A lightweight, stamped santoku knife from Victorinox, this 7-inch knife reduces arm strain with repetitive use. Many chefs like the Victorinox brand for that reason because they spend hours in the kitchen chopping up food. Of course, you may have to adjust to a lighter knife with no bolster. Nevertheless, the blade is extremely sharp and slices through tough foods effortlessly. I felt like a surgeon making precise, razor-thin cuts with this knife. The composite plastic handle feels lightweight, but it’s comfortable to grip and doesn’t slip even when your hands are wet or greasy. Amazingly, this knife is only $25.
