Stylish kitchen professionals

At this very moment throughout the world, cooks and chefs are at their chopping boards with knives at the ready. Whether it’s a chef in a smart restaurant with his versatile Santoku or someone with a paring knife at home, good kitchen knives are essential for preparing exquisite food.

That’s why a great many chefs form a very special relationship with their knife – and if it’s exceptionally elegant, all the better. Victorinox is thus pleased to present the Swiss Modern range of kitchen knives, offering both impressive performance and visual delights.

All the knives in the range feature blades made from stainless and wear-resistant steel. Their precision edges enable effortless cutting and produce the finest cutting surfaces. The handles are made of European walnut – richly grained, dark-brown wood, making each knife genuinely unique. And something else puts Swiss Modern knives in a class of their own – the walnut, which feels unbelievably warm and natural. The geometrically shaped handles create a dynamic impact and give mankind’s oldest and most important tool a contemporary feel.

The Swiss Modern range offers five knife models and a knife block: The sharp blade of the Steak Knife cuts effortlessly – and, in this case, particularly stylishly – through schnitzels, steaks and fillets. The Kitchen Knife is the traditional, compact all-rounder in the kitchen. Its slim, pointed blade makes it ideal for all smaller tasks, such as peeling vegetables and removing stalks and cores. The 19-centimeter-long blade and the ergonomically shaped walnut handle of the Carving Knife make light work of cutting and dicing even large quantities of meat, fruit and vegetables. The Japanese-inspired Santoku is truly versatile. It’s the “knife of the three virtues” – in other words, meat, fruit and vegetables. The fluted edge of the 17-centimeter-long blade reduces friction and thus stops food from sticking to the blade. And in professional kitchens, the Bread and Pastry Knife isn’t just used for cutting pasta and baked goods but also for artichokes and hard-skinned vegetables. An attractive, anthracite-colored Knife Block made of wood, whose shape echoes the design of the walnut handles, ensures stylish storage for Swiss Modern knives and provides space for six knives.

The fruit of the walnut tree is nutritious, and its wood is of exceptional interest with a varied grain. Enjoy preparing and eating food with these sharp lookers from the Victorinox Swiss Modern range. Bon appétit!
