Important Notes
While the Victorinox Chef Knife is dishwasher safe for added convenience, hand washing with mild soap and drying immediately is recommended to preserve the blade’s sharpness and finish over time. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the stainless steel surface. The knife is designed for standard kitchen cutting tasks and should not be used to cut through bones, frozen foods, or other hard materials. Always store in a knife block, sheath, or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge and ensure safety. This product includes the 8-inch chef’s knife only; no additional accessories or storage solutions are provided.
