Description of Victorinox 8-Piece Knife Block Set
In 1884 Master Cutler Karl Elsner started his cutlery factory in Ibach, Switzerland and in 1897 he crafted the Victorinox Original Swiss Army Knife. Since that time the Elsner family has continued to craft tools of percision, durability and quality. Victorinox is one of the largest producers of cutlery in the world. Victorinox cutlery has been distributed in the United States since 1884 to culinary professionals under the brand name R.H. Forschner. Each blade is stamped from a single sheet of metal. The blade is then hardened, tempered, ground, polished, etched and finished. Straight grain oak block offers slanted design for easy access and 9 slots. Included are: 4-inch Parer, 6-inch Boning, 8-inch Bread, 8-inch Chef's, 10-inch Slicer, 10-inch Sharpening steel and Kitchen Shears.Block Chef Sets
