Forged Knives
Since the beginning of time, quality knives have been manufactured by forging. Forging results in a blade that is stronger than any other method. This is because during the forging process the metal grain pattern is realigned and is transformed to a stronger material. Forging of kitchen knives is by the hot-drop forging method. It involves a multi-step process whereby a billet of steel is heated to a high temperature (2000c) and placed under a multi ton forging hammer. This metal is them hammered by the forge (transformed) into the shape of the die. The hot metal is placed on the bottom part of the die and the top part of the die drops, under great force, and forges the knife (where the name comes from). The force of the impact causes the metal to flow into the shape of the die. This is only the first step and requires further processing, tempering, grinding, heat treating, polishing, and some 40 additional steps. Forged blades are typically thicker and heavier than stamped blades. Most forged blades are considered superior to stamped blades and are the choice for top quality kitchen cutlery. All Victorinox forged cutlery are hot-drop forged, the time tested quality method of manufacturing.

Quality cutlery utilizes what is called no-stain steel to manufacture its products. It is known for its strength, its ability not to rust, and ability to hold a fine edge. However all steel can and will rust if misused or not cared for. Proper care is required to keep these fine tools look and perform like new. Only quality steel x50CR MO composition with a Rockwell hardness of 55-56 HRC for high edge retention. All blades are conically ground on the full length of the blade as well as ground crosswise. This results in a wider break point with less risk of blade fracturing and less resistance for ease of cutting. This provides, along with the expert manufacturing processes, the exact conditions for a lifetime of sharp edge and performance.
