Title: Not on par with other Victorinox products
Product review: I am a big fan of Victorinox, and I own several of their products along with much more pricey knives. I believe firmly that Victorinox knives are the best value on the market. With one exception - the paring knives. Yes, they are ridiculously cheap, so one should not expect much. Unlike other Victorinox products, the knives quality parallels the price. The blade is flimsy and provides little confidence that it would not break. The knives arrive reasonably sharp, but not nearly as sharp as other Victorinox knives. They dull easily and unlike other Victorinox knives, sharpening does not help all that much. My guess is that the steel used is too think and possibly different from what Victorinox uses for other knives. If you want a reasonably priced top-notch paring knive, look at Henckels, and if you want to spend the money, still look at Henckels, and if you want the looks and want to spend the money, Global western 3.5 inch paring knife is hard to beat.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
