Victorinox 40143 Roast Beef Slicer (10 Inch Straight Edge High Carbon Stainless Blade) 1.25 Inch at Rosewood Handle

Victorinox Forschner 40143 Roast Beef Slicer, 10 Inch Straight Edge Blade, 1.25 Inch at Rosewood Handle. The Victorinox 40143 slicing knife makes it easy to carve perfect, precise cuts of ham, pork, fish, beef, and much more. Longer and narrower than common carving knives, the slicing knife is an excellent choice for long, smooth strokes and can make quick work of larger portions of product. The stamped construction incorporated in the making of this knife make for a much thinner, lighter blade. The simple 10 inch straight blade is great for rocking the knife back and forth for a smoother, more precise slice than a serrated blade.

It has a rosewood handle, adding a touch of class to any culinary setting. As with all Victorinox knives, the handle is ergonomically designed to minimize wrist tension and provides a natural fit. Hand-washing of wooden handles is recommended.

The blade has an exceptionally keen, razor-sharp edge. The high carbon, stainless steel blade is hand finished by skilled craftsmen at Victorinox in Switzerland. A special tempering process is used to produce an edge that can be resharpened over and over again. Each Victorinox knife is stamped from a single sheet of metal. The blade is then hardened, tempered, ground, polished, etched and finished.

This Victorinox product, which is made in Switzerland, has been marketed in the U.S. under the R.H. Forschner brand name since 1937. As of 2009, it is now being sold in the U.S. under the Victorinox brand name. It was Forschner 40143, and is now Victorinox 40143.
