My paring knife has no marking on it, but the Victorinox packaging says (on the back) it was made in Switzerland. Great little knife.

Q: description says fibrox handle but the picture seems to contradict this...is this the case?

The Knife labeled, "Victorinox Swiss Army 3-1/4-Inch Fibrox Straight Edge Paring Knife, Black" which I purchased from Amazon has a polypropylene handle, not Fibrox. On this page it is listed as being Item model number: 45508, but the item I received (twice) says 40508 on the sleeve the knife came in. I am still in search of the, as of yet, elusive Victorinox paring knife with Fibrox handle which Cooks Illustrated described as:"Product name: Victorinox Fibrox Paring Knife, 3 1/4-inchManufacturer: Victorinox Model Number: 40600 Recommendation Status: Highly Recommended"The Amazon link at Cooks Illustrated brings one to the Amazon page: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000EYUDZE/?tag=cioequippilot-20 (Forschner 3.25" Paring Knife) which has no mention of a Fibrox handle, but instead describes the handle as, "Polypropylene handles is dishwasher safe."Amazon says it is working on this problem.

Q: What is the model number of the Victorinox knife with the Fibrox handle ? It is not the one on this page, despite what the title says.

If you're still interested, this is the set of three paring knives with Fibrax handles (or so it states): https://www.amazon.com/Victorinox-Swiss-Classic-3-Piece-Paring/dp/B005LRYWEW/ref=psdc_284507_t4_B008M5U1UE. The price at the time I'm writing is $15.48 and includes 3-1/4" Serrated Parer, 3-1/4" Straight Parer, and 2 -1/2" Bird's Beak Parer. Hope that helps. I DO have to say though, in the picture for the set, the knives appear to have polypropylene handles. I could be wrong though...been wrong before.... Anyway, have a good day!

Q: What sheath would I order to fit this knife?

For the Victorinox 40600 3.25" Paring Knife there is a Victorinox Paring Knife Pouch with Clip.This would most likely be the best option for this pairing knife.
