Victorinox In-Drawer Knife Holder Including 5 Swiss Classic Knives $51.46 Delivered @ Amazon AU

The knife block includes 5 Victorinox Swiss Classic Knives. The knives are an excellent entry level set and are based on popular Victorinox Fibrox Knife range except with a smaller handle size in comparison - the blades are identical.
The blades are relatively thin <2mm making them lightweight and easy to use for extended periods.
Victorinox steel is typically 56 Rockwell Hardness however the edge on these blades retains surprisingly well and are very easy to hone and sharpen.
The handle is a grippy plastic that visually looks unimpressive but the texture makes this a confident knife to hold even with oily hands.

The knife block also happens to be my favourite style which can hide elegantly in your drawer decluttering the benchtop.

The set without the block appears to be going to approximately $110-120 and the larger knives in the set are sold at around $50 individually each making this a good deal in my opinion.

Knives included are:

Swiss Classic Bread Knife - https://www.victorinox.com/global/en/Products/Cutlery/Bread-…
Swiss Classic Santoku Knife, fluted edge - https://www.victorinox.com/global/en/Products/Cutlery/Chefs-…
Swiss Classic Carving Knife - https://www.victorinox.com/global/en/Products/Cutlery/Chefs-…
Swiss Classic Tomato and Table Knife - https://www.victorinox.com/global/en/Products/Cutlery/Paring…

  • This is a great deal - price has dropped steadily from $250 at the start of the year according to camel camel camel

  • Like the knife block, but the knives are so unattractive.

      If the handle is anything like the victorinox i have theyre made to be slip resistant. Kinda useful and feels the best in the hand out of all my knives.

      • +1

        Yeah theyre super slip resistant and hardy, theirs a reason theyre the standard in a ton of commercial kitchens. Much more practical than those awfully overpriced Global knives that pop up here.

        • Thank masterchef for that.

    Excellent work on the find and the description! I already have a set of Globals but I absolutely agree with you about the drawer storage… I can't stand knives out on display and prefer my bench tops to be as clean & clear as possible so this is a great idea. Unfortunately I had to modify my Global stand to get it to fit into a drawer but it works really well so I'm happy :)

  • Pretty decent knives, but I'm curious to know how low these go..

  • Only 3 available so be quick!

  • Went to add it and now it's over 200 bucks.. :(

  • Looks like all gone.

  • +2

    Thanks OP - bought.

    To think that only this morning, I was going to post a comment criticising the frequency of knife deals on ozb…

  • Dangit. Really been needing a good knife too.

  • +1

  • Gorn

  • Dam, that went quick.

  • Ummed and ahhed too long and missed out - proud of myself.

  • are the knives made in china anyway?

    • +1

      I think theyre swiss.

    • +1

      swiss made but as with most european knives, theres basically no human input. Every bit of this knife is made by machines so it actually doesn't matter where its made. Kinda like a Swatch.

      • so its made by a machine in swiss … lol

  • Could anyone please help me with a screenshot of amazon page with the sale price shown.

    • It expired.

    • Who will price match it?

      • +1

        Possibly for a cc price protection claim.

  • +6

    Available on eBay for $76 for anyone that missed out https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/174311434574

    • not much details on what knifes are included in the set.. otherwise a great find as well!

      • OP had listed them in the description. The details also available at Victorinox web site, with links of each indivual knives.

      • the $7 paring knife, the $8 tomatoe knife $40 santuko , break knife 21 cm and slicing 20 cm ….

        • San Tuko Salamanca

    • Thanks for posting the ebay link. There were two available, I bought the last one and then they said it was damaged and will issue a refund. Paid by Paypal so not worried.
      Catch has the knife holder alone for $100.00 without knives.

      • Hahaha yeah there were actually a few sellers at around the $80 mark but looks like they've all been cleared out…

      • I also got the refund, a bit miffed.

    Oh look! a new deal post that's already expired - how typical! Amazon should have its own stream away from this mainpage.. what a load of cr*p! sick of seeing expired amazon deals.. stock too low…

    • You could just use the /deals url.

      • Tried, it's still there too?

        • I mean so you can see the deal when it's in stock as opposed to just the front page.

          • @Jenny Death: ashpete02 - don't ppl know that a deal only reaches front page once it becomes popular? interesting - thought it was self evident

    • Lol it has >1000 clicks. I think you underestimate the power of ozbargain.

    • Well as the saying goes if you're not fast your last!

  • -1

    Possibly, but didn't the robot coupe cooker have like 12k clicks and only 360odd purchases no?
    edit: fair enough as an obvious pricing error.. maybe ozb quantity rules should change to remove what most miss out on and put on another snap up page for the purpose!

  • knife hoarding

  • OP, congrats on your First Post Wonder.

  • Target sell one of these for under 20 bucks which I have and works great.

    Ikea sell one for 24 bucks and its bigger but looks ok too

    • With the knives?

      • +1

        No just the block, I put my existing knives in it

        All about that whetstone sharpening life now so this thing is handy to keep them safe in the drawer

        • Nice, what stones do you use?

    • I don’t think that the knife block you are thinking of comes with knives.
