Frequently Asked Questions
Does Victorinox give every product a lifetime warranty?
No. The linked lifetime policy covers specified product groups, including knives and cutlery. Electronic components, accessories and small leather goods have separate two-year terms. Check the terms for your exact product.
Is sharpening included in the knife warranty?
Ordinary edge wear is maintenance, not a manufacturing defect. Victorinox provides sharpening guidance; ask the service provider about the cost for your knife.
