Questions and answers

Is the Winco KFP-85 worth it?
Yes, if you want a tough forged chef knife for little money. It is a commercial-kitchen tool, so expect a basic edge and a plastic handle rather than a polished home-kitchen knife.
How does it compare with a Victorinox Fibrox?
Both are budget workhorses. The Winco is forged with a full tang and short bolster; the Victorinox is stamped and lighter, with a more comfortable textured handle.
Does it need sharpening out of the box?
Usually a light honing is enough, but many owners sharpen it soon after buying to get a keener edge.
Is the handle dishwasher safe?
The plastic handle tolerates dishwashing, but hand washing keeps the edge and steel in better shape.
What steel is the blade?
X50CrMoV15 German steel, ice tempered and rust resistant, forged into an 8-inch blade.
When is it cheapest?
The best new price seen is $22.95 at Mediterranean Restaurant Equipment as of November 5, 2026; 4 stores carry it new, so compare before buying.
