The Imarku chef's knife is a decent all arounder that is a good introduction to Gyutou style knives. With less rocker than European-style chef's knives and typically thinner blades, it can take some adjusting to get used to working with Gyutou knives. This blade was a decent performer across the board but didn't truly excel at any one thing. As expected from this style of knife, it took to the more delicate knife work like julienning and chiffonades handily. Equipped with a beautiful wooden handle, this was one aesthetic knife for the price point. 
This knife's most significant shortcomings were apparent while trying to break down big and tough root vegetables and squashes. The knife struggled to push through sweet potatoes and butternut squashes. Once these veggies were broken down into smaller pieces, the blade had no trouble moving quickly to chop or dice them but getting to the point was a process. All in all, this is a well-rounded knife that is ideal for someone wanting to try a Gyutou style knife without breaking the bank.

.. This knife doesn't hold an edge well. I cut up some carrots and celery for some turkey soup, and stir fry a few days earlier

 I mean drop a hair on it and it's sliced in two sharp. I just knocked out Thanksgiving dinner with it. It chopped all my veggies for dressing and carved the turkey with ease. Really a great tool and a long-overdue investment for my kitchen

 This knife doesn't hold an edge well. I cut up some carrots and celery for some turkey soup, and stir fry a few days earlier..and this knife dulled considerably

Should have bought this years ago...A pretty good knife, but doesn't hold an edge so good...

 Even though I worked as a chef de cuisine for 30 years, it got me. But, a good sharp edge helps lessen the damage , so that’s a plus. Sleek, sexy, sharp and a wee bit dangerous

The only thing I can fault this knife on is that there is nothing to let your fingers know when you’re about to slip to the rear of the blade. No exra thickness, no ridge, nothing. Even though I worked as a chef de cuisine for 30 years, it got me. But, a good sharp edge helps lessen the damage , so that’s a plus

Safety!

I waited a long while before leaving a review as I do with most amazon items I leave reviews for. This is a very nice chef knife for the money. Its my go to knife when ever I'm cooking. Holds an edge very well have has no issues at all

 Its my go to knife when ever I'm cooking. Holds an edge very well have has no issues at all. It has a good grip. It also arrived very sharp to the point it needed nothing at all and I used it right out of the box, an uncommon experience for me with most economically priced knives

Great knife without breaking the bank

This is a very sharp knife but I really needed a smaller knife. I didn’t realize this would be so big.

Very sharp knife

National sanitary foundation (NSF) approved and dishwasher safe. be good to your knives and they're be good to you. Following these simple guidelines will ensure that you get the longest life out of your knife! Victorinox Swiss Army recommends washing all knives by hand. For best results, hand wash your knives with a soapy cloth and dry immediately. while Fibrox Pro knives are dishwasher safe, We recommend hand washing as dishwashers are designed to spray water at a relatively high pressure, which can jostle the silverware and cause the knives to collide, dulling the edge. sharpening for optimum performance, knives should be honed after every couple of uses. Proper and frequent use of a honing steel will keep your knives sharper and performing at their best. formerly Forschner in 1937 Victorinox began selling cutlery in America through a Connecticut distributor called R.

The Victorinox Fibrox Pro 8" chef's knife is the perfect way to dip your toes into the world of higher-quality knives. While it isn't the most beautiful or refined option, it is incredibly utilitarian. Sporting a lightweight plastic handle, it doesn't have the best hand feel, but it performed fairly well across all our metrics. It wasn't the highest scorer in any category, but for its low price, it's hard to beat. This is a knife that you can truly put through the wringer without worry.
This knife checks many boxes. It's a prep workhorse and a blade you won't be stressed about careless roommates mishandling. It's a great first chef's knife to start building your kitchen essentials around.

After looking around for a week or so, I kept seeing the Fibrox come up as the best value budget knife, and that the Swiss modern was the upgraded version with a better handle. Just so happened to be my birthday this month so asked for this from my Dad. Is asking for kitchen appliances for your birthday one of the first signs of getting old?.

I wanted my first ‘proper’ knife for my birthday and asked for this. Victorinox Swiss Modern. My birthday isn’t until next week but it came today and I couldn’t wait to use it.

Before we start with the review I want to

No one sends them to me or is paying me to
use the knife or to make this video.

No one gets a chance to preview any of this
footage before you guys get to see this on

Now with the disclosures away let's start
with the review.

The knife is made from stainless steel with
a Rockwell of 56.

This means that the knife core material is
soft and has lesser edge retention than knives

It is easy to sharpen and easy to get the
sharpness back with a honing rod.

The handle is made from a plastic material
with a great grippy texture.

The handle is very comfortable to hold especially
for people with larger hands.

But if you have a smaller hand then this handle
might be too big and not comfortable.

The knife balance point is in front of the
curved indent.

The recommended griping style is the pinch
grip at the curved indent for the optimal

The thumb grip and the fingertip grip is not
recommended despite having enough knuckle

The handle and the knife design is best suitable
for the pinch grip to get the optimal comfort

The knife is slightly front heavy but this
is barely noticeable since the blade is surprisingly

light at 167 grams for a western designed
chef knife.

the spine has a nice distal taper which is
also noticeable during use on certain food.

The spine and the heel are nicely polished
with no sharp edges.

The knife itself is also very sturdy and there
is no flex during use.

The knife profile is very good and is similar
to a Wusthof or Zwilling.

It has a flat spot at the heel and a curved
front that is great for rocking.

The only downside of the knife is the part
where the handle meets the blade.

It will catch dirt over time and is harder
to clean once the seal wears off.

I have used a lot of Victorinox paring knives
that have the same problems despite the harder

The knife is not the best looking but it performs
great, especially if you are going to use

The maintenance is very low and sharpening
is easy on this knife.

sink for a while before washing then this
