Chances are, if you open your kitchen drawers you’ll find a little Victorinox knife somewhere. Most likely, it’s one of your favourites too. And that’s for a good reason: Victorinox knives are probably the most well-known knife brand worldwide. Made in Ibach-Schwyz and Delemont in Switzerland, their range of household and professional kitchen tools (not to forget their famous Swiss Army Knives) all started over 135 years ago, in 1884. All Victorinox steel blades are made from 100% recycled, martensitic stainless steel. This steel provides optimum function & durability and delivers the perfect combination of cutting edge retention and corrosion protection. The blades should also be flexible so it does not break during use.
Victorinox sharpening steels are hugely popular with professionals and keen amateur cooks alike.
For an enjoyable cooking experience, you need sharp knives, and to keep your knives sharp you need to use a sharpening steel regularly. All Victorinox’s models are produced in Europe, and experience shows they offer an exceptionally long service life. Ergonomically designed handles ensure the tools are comfortable to hold. The Duo Ceramic Sharpener is a speciality item, with two grits, the blue sides are rough at 360 grit, the white sides are fine at 1000grit. Round 26cm blade.
