  The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 56-65

  The massive range in rockwell hardness doesn't give confidence.

  I'd recommend 20cm-23cm for most people..
  25-30cm blade length is starting to get a little long

    It's a typo on Amazon AU.

    This knife line is one-piece stamped, which produces a strong blade from heel to tip. The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 56-57.

    There's about 0% chance it's HRC 60+ let alone 65.

    X50CrMoV15, which is the steel this knife is made from typically is heat treated to 53-56 HRC. Even the messermeister website specs the knife at 56-57.

    The amazon rating of 56-65 is about as real as the chinese lumens ratings on their torches.

  I had been waiting for the victorinox to go on sale but couldn’t resist at ATL of $28.47

      First impressions, honestly the handle moulding could be tidier (victorinox Fibrox better in this regard). Definitely a more hefty knife and you get that “thick knife resistance” when cutting through carrots and the like. I bought this one mainly for pumpkin which sticks to the blade and requires a sturdier knife. Will report back when I’ve had a chance to use it more.
