FAQs
Is the Victorinox Fibrox Carving Knife dishwasher safe?
Yes, the handle and blade materials are dishwasher safe, though hand washing is recommended to preserve the edge sharpness for longer.
What is the blade made of?
It is made of high-carbon stainless steel, which is prized for its balance between sharpness and corrosion resistance.
Does this knife need frequent sharpening?
Due to its high-quality steel and construction, it holds an edge very well. Occasional honing with a steel is usually sufficient for daily maintenance.
Can this knife be used for bone-in meats?
While it can handle most carving tasks, it is not a cleaver. Avoid cutting through hard bones to prevent potential micro-chipping of the fine edge.
Is the handle comfortable for small hands?
Yes, the Fibrox handle is ergonomically contoured to fit a wide variety of hand sizes comfortably.
Where is this knife manufactured?
All Victorinox Fibrox knives are manufactured in Switzerland.
Troubleshooting
Blade feels dull after heavy use
Use a honing steel at a 20-degree angle to realign the edge of the blade.
Minor spotting on the blade surface
Ensure the knife is thoroughly dried immediately after washing to prevent water spots on the stainless steel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the knife arrives extremely sharp, ensure you have a stable cutting surface, such as a wood or heavy-duty plastic cutting board, to protect the edge. Avoid using glass or stone boards, as these will dull the steel prematurely. To maintain the blade, hand washing with mild soap and warm water is recommended, though the handle material is technically dishwasher safe. For the longest lifespan, hone the blade with a sharpening steel before each use and store it using a knife block or a magnetic rail to prevent the edge from knocking against other metal utensils.
