Same here, That writer's comments on the Victorinox reveal a shocking
ignorance. Maybe he's never been in a commercial kitchen.

FWIW, I own the Wusthof, the Henckels, the Victorinox, a beautiful
mother-of-pearl-handled Lamson, and a Shun; all 8-inch, plus a 10-incher
from DeHillerin. Of them all, the Henckels is my least favorite. It
lives in my travel roll of expendable knives.
