Victorinox Fibrox Butcher's Knife 10" Wide Tip (Red) — 5.7401.25
The wide-tip 10" butcher's knife in red — the colour HACCP colour-coding assigns to raw meat prep, and a natural pairing for a large-format professional butchery blade. This is the size and profile serious meat processing operations rely on daily: enough reach to portion large primal cuts in single sweeping strokes, with a reinforced tip built for splitting through thicker sections and tough connective tissue without extra passes.
The blade is high-carbon stainless steel, and the wide tip specifically adds cutting surface and strength exactly where the toughest part of large cuts demands it. Combined with the classic curved butcher's profile, it delivers both the reach for efficient portioning and the power for the denser, more demanding sections of a carcass — a genuinely versatile large-format tool for a busy meat processing line.
The red Fibrox handle is textured thermoplastic elastomer, NSF-certified for commercial food-service use and secure in the hand even when wet or slick from raw meat — a genuine safety feature on a blade this large and powerful, where grip failure carries real risk. Dishwasher-safe, though hand-washing and thorough drying immediately after use is strongly recommended given the professional-scale use this knife typically sees.
Who This Knife Is For
Meat prep and butchery stations in high-volume professional kitchens running HACCP colour-coding, and processing operations needing both maximum reach and cutting power in a single blade.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is red used for a butcher's knife specifically?
Under HACCP colour-coding, red denotes raw meat, and a large wide-tip butcher's knife is a core tool in exactly that station, making the pairing a natural fit for formal kitchen colour systems.
Is this suitable for breaking down whole carcasses?
Yes — this is precisely the size and profile built for large-scale primal breakdown, portioning, and trimming in commercial meat processing environments.
How does this differ from the black-handled version?
Identical blade, steel, and construction — only the handle colour differs, chosen to match your kitchen's colour-coding scheme.
How should this be cleaned given the volume of meat contact?
Hand-wash thoroughly in hot, soapy water after every use, and dry completely before storage to prevent both bacterial growth and edge degradation.
