Very much a knife of the trade

The Blade:

The blades are made of martensitic stainless steel. The basis for optimum function and durability of a blade, is the use of the correct steel alloy. The steel should deliver the perfect combination of cutting edge retention and corrosion protection. It should also be exible, so it does not break during use.

The Handle:

Fibrox handles are made from PA or TPE. They feature excellent non-slip properties, can be used at temperatures of up to 80 - 110 Degrees and can also be sterilised. These properties are ideal for ensuring safe use in a professional environment. To make the different applications for all knives visible, Victorinox offer many Fibrox models in 6 colors. This risk management corresponds to the internally recognised HACCP system and ensures a high level of safety in food processing.

The HACCP Colour coding is as follows:
Red = Raw Meat
Blue = Fish;
Black = Univeral
Green = Fruit / Vegetables
White = Bakery / Diary
Yellow = Poultry.
