Victorinox 8-Inch Chef is an excellent knife

My favorite knife is the Victorinox eight inch chef' knife.  I have se the same knife as my mainstay kitchen utensil for the past ten years.  It still maintains a reasonabley sharp edge.  The knife continues to remain perfectly balanced.  The 8 inch knife is perfect for my smaller hands.  The narrow blade allows you to control the knife while you are slicing and dicing.  THe antibacterial handle is nice since I use this knife for most of my cutting needs.  I purchase my knife from a restaurant supply store for less than thirty dollars.  I have several more expensive knifes, but don't care for their weight or the deeper blades which make them ackward to use.  The biggest problem I have is that my guest tend to abuse the knife becuase it doesn't like like an expensive chef's knife.  It is by far my favorite kitchen tool.
