Rosewood — Victorinox

The Rosewood collection is Victorinox's premium wood-handle range and one of the best-selling traditional-handle pro knife lines on AZ boutique. It carries the same Swiss steel quality as the Fibrox and SwissClassic ranges, but dresses the blade in a brown rosewood handle, warmer to the hand and more visually striking.

The Rosewood collection's specificity

Rosewood refers to the rosewood handle fitted on Victorinox's professional kitchen knives. The wooden handle replaces the synthetic Fibrox of the other ranges for a more traditional feel.

• Stainless steel blades
• Brown rosewood handle
• Available as boning knife, Santoku, salmon knife, paring knife, etc.
• Widely used in butchery and charcuterie for the comfort and look of the wooden handle

The most popular pieces in the Rosewood collection

A few formats account for most of the purchases on AZ boutique, around butchery and slicing knives.

• Boning knife curved blade 15 cm: AZ boutique's best-selling piece, to separate meat from bone with precision
• Santoku knife hollow-edge blade 17 cm: Japanese multi-purpose knife for slicing, chopping, dicing
• Boning knife cambered blade 15 cm: cambered blade variant for butchery work
• Boning knife straight blade 12 cm: shorter format for detailed work on small pieces
• Salmon knife 30 cm blade: thin, flexible blade for fine fillet slicing

Choosing within the Rosewood collection

Why is the Rosewood collection well-known?

Rosewood is the Victorinox range that combines the Swiss professional blade with the comfort and look of a wooden handle. It is particularly favoured by butchers and charcutiers, as well as by enthusiasts looking for a beautiful slicing knife for everyday use.

How is it different from Fibrox and SwissClassic?

The three ranges share the same Swiss steel. Fibrox: non-slip black synthetic handle, pro range, dishwasher-safe. SwissClassic: ergonomic black synthetic handle, consumer range and sets. Rosewood: brown rosewood handle, more traditional look, requires hand washing to preserve the wood.

Which piece should I start with?

For meat enthusiasts, the 15 cm boning knife (curved blade) is the natural entry point: it is the collection's flagship piece. For a versatile kitchen use, start with the 17 cm Santoku. For fish lovers, the 30 cm salmon knife is a long-term investment.

Is the Rosewood collection dishwasher-safe?

No. The rosewood handle cannot withstand the dishwasher: heat and prolonged dampness would crack it. Wash Rosewood knives by hand in warm water and dry the handle immediately to preserve the wood. A light touch of food-safe oil from time to time keeps the rosewood beautiful.
