Regardless of your culinary expertise, Victorinox Swiss Army equips you with the tools and knowledge to achieve your culinary dreams. Born in Switzerland in 1884, the brand stands behind its products with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. In 1937, Victorinox expanded its presence in America, initially through distributor R.H. Forschner & Co., becoming synonymous with quality.

In 2011, the company adopted the iconic name Victorinox Swiss Army for all its product lines, including kitchen knives. Today, while some accessories still bear the Forschner name, like the High Heat Turner series, proper care and maintenance are essential for knife longevity. Hand washing is recommended, as dishwashers can blunt edges due to their high-pressure water jets. Regular honing helps maintain optimal performance, while dull, pitted blades require sharpening with a Swiss Sharp Handheld Sharpener or professional service.

Karl Elsener, a master cutler, founded Victorinox in 1884 in Ibach, Switzerland. His company produced top-notch steel cutlery, and in 1891, supplied the Swiss Army with standard-issue knives. By 1921, after his mother Victoria's passing and the introduction of stainless steel, the company changed its name to Victorinox, setting the foundation for a global brand.

Today, the Elsener family continues to own and operate Victorinox, remaining rooted in their Swiss origins. The brand's commitment to excellence is reflected in its precision paring knife, designed for a lifetime of reliable service in the hands of professional and amateur chefs alike.
