The Victorinox Fibrox extra-broad chef’s knife is a 20cm Swiss-made all-rounder that weighs about 182g and uses Victorinox’s non-slip TPE handle. It is a professional tool rather than a display piece.
The extra-broad blade gives knuckle clearance and extra board coverage for chopping herbs, dicing vegetables and portioning boneless meat.

A professional workhorse with superb grip and almost no pretence — one of the easiest knives here to recommend on value.

Why we chose it
This is here to compete for the “one serious knife” purchase, so it needed a distinct feel and a convincing everyday reason to choose it over the other all-rounders. This 20 cm extra-broad Fibrox chef’s knife is Swiss-made, weighs about 182 g and uses Victorinox’s non-slip TPE handle — a professional tool rather than a display piece. The 20 cm format is the benchmark all-round size: enough blade for serious prep without becoming cumbersome.
Who it's best for
Buy it if you want a everyday all-rounder mainly for chopping herbs, dicing vegetables and portioning boneless meat; you naturally use rocking and draw cuts; grip, value and ease matter more to you than forged construction. This recommendation applies specifically to Fibrox Extra Broad Chef Knife.
