12" Slicer / Carving Knife
The slicer or carving knife is used to slice portions of large, cooked meat, e.g., roasts, hams, steaks etc. The slicer has a blunted or rounded tip, and a granton (fluted) blade. The fluted styled blade is designed to create a small amount of air space between the knife and the meat, providing for easier meat separation, and making it more difficult for the meat to stick to the knife. In commercial food service environments, a slicer is most commonly used for slicing roasted meats, such as turkey, beef, pork, or lamb. It is particularly effective during service in carving stations, where chefs need to deliver consistently sized portions quickly and efficiently. Its design also makes it suitable for preparing smoked or cured meats like ham or brisket. Additionally, the knife can be used for slicing larger fruits like melons or carving cakes, showcasing its versatility. Durable and efficient, it’s a staple in professional kitchens.
