you make a comparison.....and then say you don't know if the production knife was sharp?...…...apples to oranges....bob
Yes Bob, I was suffering under the apparently unreasonable expectation that a knife should in fact be sharp. Won't happen again. Lemme know if you have any concerns when your package arrives. Hank, very excited here! Looking forward to it. Edit: thought I would add that I checked the Victorinox and yes it arrived dull as a stump, making this ridiculous comparison even less useful. In any case I passed a steel over it 20x and it appears frightfully sharp now.

If you didn't know, you didn't know. No one is omniscient....well, I take that back--it takes 50,000 posts to be granted.
Just me, but I would stone & finish a commercial to literally shaving sharp right out of the box, if they are not. Commercial knives are consumables and designed to be sharpened and maintained in the light of making a living. In other words, if you get paid at the end of the shift by how many pounds of boned meat went across the scale, you do not want to be spending any more time than needed getting an edge or maintaining it (with the steel) until the next stone or grind session. As the blade gets reduced, the knife becomes a PITA to maintain and a liability to your production, so it gets replaced. They do come six in a box.
The customs I have are treated with respect and then some more than others...:) Why something as simple as a knife can be so pleasing to the eye and hand is beyond me.

yeah, that too--for the same outcome the commercial product is notably cheaper than the upscale stuff...

You can no more tell someone how to do something you've never done, than you can come back from somewhere you've never been...
