THE best for the price
After searching stores looking for a knife set I began researching online. I found this set and was a bit reluctant. They didn’t come with a knife block, they didn’t have wooden handles, and the brand wasn’t ringing a bell. But they were rated so highly, and the comments so positive, I decided to take a chance. They are AMAZING! Manufactured by the company that makes Swiss Army Knives, they are beautifully made. These three knives will do virtually anything you need done in the kitchen, so you don’t really need more knives. They have excellent weight, good balance, and the grip feels ergonomic. While priced at the low end for good knives, you feel you are using the Mercedes of knives. This is a great set for anyone who loves cooking or quality. And as an aside, I was happy to have to find an alternative to the knife block. I got a strip magnet, and it is so much better!

Great knives
I just purchased this knife set for my son for Christmas, after reading good reviews. The knives have met all my expectations so far. They are very sharp, and the fibrox handles are substantial, non-slip, and comfortatble. The first test was 4 butternut squash my son volunteered to peel and cut up for Christmas dinner. Cutting hard squash is a task I don’t look forward to, but the paring knife did the peeling, and the chef’s knife did the chopping, with no problem. I then borrowed the paring knife to cut up an onion, and was amazed at how easily it went through the onion compared to the Chicago Cutlery I’ve used for years. For less than $50, I’m ready to buy another set for myself!

Forschner Quality is Tops
A must have for every kitchen. I own Chicago Cutlery, Cutco and others, but my Forschner knives are the ones I reach for time after time. If you’ve never tried them, you don’t know what you’re missing. Go ahead… spoil yourself!

Victorinox 8 Piece Knife Block Set Review

Any time that you encounter the word Victorinox, you very likely associate it immediately with Swiss Army knives. Of course, you are right in that respect as Victorinox is presently the sole maker of the world-famous multi-purpose tool with the distinctive emblem. Another great model to consider is Victorinox 8 Piece Knife Block Set

5 Promotional Swiss Army Knives to Consider For Promoting Your …

Swiss Army knives are loved worldwide for their stylish appearance and user friendly functionality. There are many different types and those manufactured by Victorinox are some of the most popular. Here I would like to tell you about some of the options available to you for promoting your brand with promotional Swiss Army knives. It is worth noting since you may be purchasing these for your good customers that all of these pocket knives are backed by a lifetime guarantee.

The Escort Keyring Knife

This is the least expensive Swiss Army knife available. It is a miniature knife on a keyring yet is still has six features including a blade, nail file, screwdriver, tweezers, key ring and a toothpick. Printed with your logo and details, you can rest assured that your customers will have your brand with them wherever they may go.

The Classic SD Keyring Knife

The next step up is the Classic SD. This full size keyring pocket knife has seven features including a blade, nail file, screwdriver, scissors, key ring, tweezers and toothpick. It is only slightly more expensive than the Escort and the additional top quality are worth the expense.

The Spartan

This is the best selling knife and it is excellent value for money. It has 12 features including a large and small blade, corkscrew, reamer, punch and sewing eye, bottle opener, large screwdriver, wire stripper, keyring, tweezers and toothpick. It is really a tool set all wrapped into a nice little package.

The Swiss Card

You may have seen these before as they are very popular retail gifts. The Swiss Card is the same size as a credit card and it has 9 tools to help you through your day. The print area is larger than most knives because of its size. Purchase these for your customers and you will be giving them a letter opener, nail file, screwdriver, scissors, keyring, tweezers and a toothpick. Be sure to remind them to take it out of their wallet before boarding a flight, however, or they may end up in like me in a far off back room of an airport trying to convince three officers that they are not terrorists.

The Rest

I have told you about the budget options, now I will tell you about the other possibilities. There are Swiss Army knives for fishermen, campers, computer technicians, sailors, builders, electricians, you name the occupation, there is most likely a specialty knife for them. Ask you supplier to send you visuals of products that meet your individual requirements.
