The Forged 8 inch Offset Bread Knife by Victorinox features beautifully balanced, perfectly weighted full tang construction, an intuitively engineered comfortable handle, and a no stain high polished forged steel blade with an edge that will retain its razor sharpness.

The handles are made of Poly Oxy Methylene, which holds its shape and will not crack or separate from the blade. It is triple-riveted and ergonomically rounded to provide optimum weight, balance and comfort.

The blade is crafted of high carbon no stain steel, and the bolsterless edge allows for use of the entire blade and ease of sharpening.

This fine cutlery is hot-drop hand forged and ice tempered by master forgers in Solingen, Germany exclusively for Victorinox. It is then shipped to Victorinox in Ibach, Switzerland for application of their famous proprietary sharp edge and rigid quality control finishing.
