Victorinox Rosewood Handle Slicing Knife Victorinox Rosewood knives are stamped, cut into a shape from a cold rolled piece of steel & then ground, tempered, & sharpened. The traditional rosewood handle is designed to provide maximum comfort featuring a carved handle design for extra durability. It requires many less steps than forging & results in a lighter, narrower blade. Stamped knives are easier to produce & therefore less expensive & can be re-sharpened over & over again. They perform very well & can approach the quality of a forged blade, but not the weight or feel. Hand finished in Switzerland by skilled craftsmen with a lifetime warranty. Length:250
