Filete, solomillo, lomo, no importa el corte que elijas, nuestro cuchillo para carne es el compañero ideal al que recurrir. Con un ajuste perfecto a la palma de la mano, corta con gracia perpendicularmente las fibras de la carne, por lo que sólo te resta disfrutar el sabor. Ofrecemos dos tipos de cuchillo para bistec: de filo recto y de filo dentado. Los verdaderos conocedores de la carne prefieren el filo recto para no rasgar la carne. De todos modos, el filo dentado hace que el cuchillo sea más versátil, por lo que también es ideal para cortar porciones de pizza.
Nuestro consejo: Las hojas con filo dentado sirven no sólo para cortar bistecs y pizzas con facilidad, son aptas también para pasteles, tartas y quiches.

El cuchillo para filetear
Para pescados impecables
Esta hoja es excepcionalmente precisa para el pescado. Con un cuerpo alargado, angosto y levemente en punta, es lo suficientemente flexible para sortear una gran cantidad de espinas con una agilidad excepcional. El resultado es un plato sin espinas, perfectamente fileteado, con una presentación hermosa. Ofrecemos dos tamaños de hoja: de 16 cm y de 20 cm. Aquí, la regla es elegir un cuchillo que sea aproximadamente 5 cm más grande que el pescado que fileteas. Esto significa que la hoja de 16 cm es más apta para pescados como trucha o caballa, mientras que la hoja de 20 cm es ideal para pescados medianos o grandes como el salmón o el bagre.
Nuestro consejo: La longitud y la hoja flexible de un cuchillo para filetear también lo convierten en una opción excelente para pelar naranjas.
El filo con alvéolos y la hoja más recta hacen del cuchillo Santoku un confiable utensilio versátil para la cocina. Los alvéolos garantizan que la comida no se pegue a la hoja cuando cortas, y eso hace que rebanar carne, pescado, verdura o hasta fruta sea fácil. La hoja con filo recto es apta para picar, rebanar y cortar en dados, lo que te ayuda a cortar con mayor precisión y facilidad.
Nuestro consejo: Ofrecemos este cuchillo tanto con filo con alvéolos como sin ellos. Si bien la hoja sin alvéolos puede facilitar el afilado a largo plazo, recomendamos el filo con alvéolos por la facilidad y precisión que aporta a cualquier tarea de rebanado.

The Bread Knife
Makes light work of tough surfaces
Freshly baked granary bread with salted butter, ciabatta with balsamic and extra virgin olive oil, sourdough rye with ham and cheese: bread has so many delicious guises. So, investing in a knife that knows how to tackle your daily loaf is key. Built to last, our Bread Knives slice adeptly through thick crusts, thanks to the wavy edge blade. For those who need help cutting the perfect slice, the Dux knife has an adjustable guide to help you slice bread or even salami or cucumber.
Our tip: Baked goods are this blade’s domain but try it on a pumpkin and you’ll be in expert hands.
The Carving Knife is another kitchen workhorse which can handle pretty much anything that lands on your cutting board. It’s ideal for more compact joints such as guinea fowl, poussin or duck. For larger cuts of meat, we recommend an extra-wide blade. The longer blades are also ideal for precisely cutting carpaccio, for example. The Carving Knife is also adept at handling all kinds of fruit and vegetables, making it another kitchen must-have. Its ergonomic handle means it’s super easy to use and the straight edge cuts with impressive precision.
Our tip: It may have earned its culinary stripes for carving meat, but this adept blade works just as well on soft fruit and vegetables. Why not try it on a pineapple?
Como fusiona un equilibrio excepcional con una estructura elegante, este cuchillo es fuerte y puede entrar en acción rápidamente en el terreno culinario. Es excelente para trinchar trozos más grandes como rabadilla de ternero, paletilla de cordero o pavo gracias a su hoja extra ancha, que te ayuda a cortar grandes pedazos de carne con facilidad. Para una demostración al estilo de un restaurante, úsalo para trinchar sobre una hermosa tabla para picar en el centro de la mesa.
Nuestro consejo: Las mejores cosas no siempre vienen en envases pequeños. El ancho adicional le brinda a esta hoja precisión y potencia. Si realmente deseas rebanar sin esfuerzo, elige la versión con filo con alvéolos de este cuchillo.
The smallest knife in our kitchen, the Paring Knife is a multitasker that can chop, slice, peel, dice and core. Choose the wavy edge for fruit with soft flesh, such as kiwis or peaches, so you don’t bruise the flesh. The straight edge is good for citrus fruits and pears. Also works well for chopping herbs and preparing garnishes. We offer three blade sizes: 6cm, 8cm and 10cm – enabling you to pick the best blade for the task at hand.
Our tip: The version with the more rounded tip is good for coring apples or cutting out the eyes on potatoes. The pointed tip is ideal for very precise cutting things like fondant icing, so you can take your cake decoration skills to the next level.
El éxito de esta hoja pequeña radica en su contorno curvo. Un filo dentado superfiloso permite realizar cortes complejos en las superficies más delicadas. Rebana tomates sin aplastar sus delicados centros. Corte chipolatas, salami y salchichas especiales sin arruinar su forma impecable y precisa. Te preguntarás cómo hiciste para vivir sin él.
Nuestro consejo: El filo dentado de esta hoja también es ideal para untar mantequilla o mermelada sobre pan recién horneado.
Since our expertise at Victorinox is tool combination, our Bread and Pastry Knife has been designed to take care of all your baked-goods-related jobs in the kitchen. Not only can the wavy edge blade cut bread, cakes and pastries with ease, it can also function as a spatula to spread buttercream or icing onto your baked delights. A great advantage is the special shape of the blade, which naturally follows your hand movement as you cut and makes every cutting task easier. We also offer a longer, 26 cm version which is designed specifically for tackling larger pastries or cakes.
Our tip: So, at home in the pastry kitchen, it’s equally as skilled at handling bread and harder-skinned fruits or vegetables like watermelon.
Slice your salmon like a professional with this knife designed exclusively for the task. Filleting slices of the delicate fish is easy work thanks to this knife’s thin, flexible blade. The fluted edge of the Salmon Knife prevents the meat from tearing or sticking to the blade – ensuring that you have the perfect slice, every time. Your only problem will be keeping up with the demand for more.
Our tip: This knife’s long, thin, flexible blade with its fluted edge also makes it ideal for ham or anything else you’d cut with a slicing knife.
Make your next gathering memorable with food that looks too good to eat. The Shaping Knife is the ideal tool for creating garnishes that give your spread some added panache. The thin, curved “Bird’s Beak” blade and ergonomic handle provide the control you need to create intricate designs, whether you’re carving radish roses for the vegetable platter or slicing strawberry fans for brunch. Turn your meal into an event.
Our tip: This knife’s thin, sharp blade is also perfect for cleaning and peeling mushrooms.
