Product Information
Full details
The Victorinox Fibrox Carving Knife is designed for home cooks and professional chefs who require a reliable, high-performance tool for precise meat carving. Its primary benefit is the combination of a razor-sharp, high-carbon stainless steel blade and a secure, non-slip handle that allows for effortless slicing of roasts and poultry. A notable caveat is that while the blade is dishwasher safe, hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the edge longevity and finish of the steel over the long term.

What material is the handle made of?
The handle is made from a specialized non-slip Fibrox material designed for a secure grip in professional kitchen settings.
Is the blade serrated or straight?
This model features a straight blade, which is ideal for smooth, clean cuts on roasts and poultry.
Troubleshooting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This knife arrives ready for use right out of the packaging. To maintain the 25 cm blade, always clean it immediately after use using warm water and a mild detergent, especially if it has come into contact with acidic juices. Avoid leaving the blade submerged in water or allowing it to sit unwashed. When not in use, protect the edge by storing the knife in a dedicated knife block or attaching it to a magnetic wall strip. We recommend using a wooden or plastic cutting board to avoid premature dulling of the edge that occurs with glass or stone surfaces.
