Overview
A granton edge cut into the blade creates small air spaces between the knife and the meat, so juices pass through and slices release cleanly. The blade is stamped high carbon stainless steel with a rounded tip and a Fibrox handle.
Long, smooth strokes through cooked meat are what this knife is built for, and the non-slip handle helps when hands are wet or greasy. The limit is range: the long blade and rounded tip are not made for detail work or hard produce.
Who it's for
Holiday hosts, caterers and butchers who slice large cooked joints often and want a long blade that finishes a slice in one pass. A buyer looking for a compact utility knife should choose a shorter blade.
Pros and cons
- Granton edge releases slices from meat
- High carbon stainless steel resists discoloring
- Non-slip ergonomic handle
- NSF listed for commercial kitchens
- Long blade needs drawer or block space
- Rounded tip limits detail work
- Pack count unclear in the listing
Performance notes
The hollow granton scallops trap tiny pockets of air, which cuts the suction between blade and meat and lets juices pass through. A long, thin stamped blade draws through a roast in a single stroke, so slices stay even. The textured handle gives grip when the knife is wet.
