I have the Grand Prix Wusthof santoku, the Grand Prix II, the Classic, the Gourmet. I have a few others, too. And yet, this knife is *sharp*. I used to work in catering and restaurants, so I'm aware that because of the wear and tear we don't use the best things - just enough to get the job done.
This knife, however, is exceeding my expectations. It is light, agile, durable. From day one it felt naturally like my right hand, like it's always been there.
It is an amazing value, especially for home use. It's at that price point where, because it is so good, it's absolutely worth it, but that in three or four years, you won't mind replacing it. It's a beautiful knife, so it can stay on display. It's magnetic, so it can be put on a magnetic knife strip.
I bought one for my grandmother, too. I go to her house all summer to grill - and I need a knife that feels like it's a part of me!
If you don't want to spend the money on a fleet of premium knives, this one seems like it will do the same job at a lower price point. I've not had it that long, but if this review is not updated from its 5-star rating, I still have it and it is going strong.
By the by, It's sharp. It cuts onions very, very well. Sails through tomatoes, bell and jalapeno peppers, minces parsley fantastically (much less sticking to the side than the Grand Prix II), cuts cooked chicken flesh (coq au vin) around the bone beautifully. I am thinking about replacing some of my older knives with this guy - and for me, that's saying a lot!

Great For Root Vegetables
While starting life as a graduate student, I made the decision to get more serious about cooking to eat better and save money. A functional kitchen begins with quality cookware and a good set of knives; toward that end, I considered purchasing several of Victorinox's knife sets: Victorinox 46892 Fibrox 3-Piece Chef's Knife Set, Victorinox 8-Piece Knife Block Set, Victorinox 7-Piece Knife Block Set, Victorinox Swiss Classic 15-Piece Cutlery Block Set. In the end I found that, at Amazon's heavily-discounted prices, it's just as economical to construct a 'custom set' by purchasing the knives individually. This also ensures that you get exactly what you want, and that you don't waste money on knives that you don't want or need. In the end, I purchased: Victorinox 40521 10-Inch Chef's Knife, Black Fibrox Handle Victorinox Fibrox 7-Inch Granton Edge Santoku Knife Victorinox 5-Inch Mini-Chef's Knife with Fibrox Handle Victorinox Honing Steel 12-Inch Round Regular Cut, Black Plastic Handle Henckels 20-Slot Super Knife Storage Block All of these products are very highly reviewed, and together they form an excellent introductory knife collection at a reasonable price. As a vegetarian with a penchant for root vegetables, I am using this knife almost constantly. The granton edge enables me to dice through fields of potatoes, rutabagas, celeriac, and parsnip with ease. The construction is top-notch and the Fibrox handle ensures that it is easy to clean. As is the case with other Victorinox knives, the cutting edge is amazingly sharp and, when cared for properly with handwashing and regular honing on a quality steel, it maintains this edge extraordinarily well. At this price, the casual at-home cooking hobbyist is unlikely to find a better deal.
