R. Murphy 3-inch Produce Knife, Orange Handle
A bright orange handle is easy to find in a produce cooler or a muddy row, which is the point of the R. Murphy 3-inch produce knife with an orange handle. Grocers and farms use it to trim and split produce, and the color keeps it from disappearing into the trimmings.Its 3-inch straight-edged blade ends in a blunt point. On the sales floor, it cuts away bruised leaves and blemishes and splits fruit to check ripeness without spearing anything behind it. On a farm, it is a handy size for cutting herbs, greens and small heads at harvest. A built-in guard at the front of the handle keeps the hand behind the edge, and the slip-resistant handle grips well with wet or gloved hands.For the carbon steel version of this knife, see the 3-inch black-handled produce knife. For larger produce and a longer cut, the 4-inch produce knife has an extra inch of stainless blade and a green handle. Learn More$27.15 -
R. Murphy 4-inch Stainless Steel Produce Knife, Green Handle

Dexter-Russell Traditional 6-inch Produce Knife, Carbon Steel
Dexter-Russell’s Traditional 6-inch produce knife is the most visited produce knife among the Dexter pages on our site. It is a long, slim knife with a blunt end, and Dexter calls it ideal for slicing and dicing foods like onions and tomatoes. The rounded end keeps a sharp point away from the hand during fast cutting, which suits a market stand or a home cook working through a garden harvest. Grocery chains use it to trim produce, and growers use it at harvest for crops such as celery.The blade is the old-fashioned kind that takes a very fine edge and darkens with use. Dry it after washing and give it a few strokes on a honing steel, and it will stay sharp through a season of canning tomatoes and putting up peppers. Dexter has made knives in Southbridge, Massachusetts, since 1818, and its Traditional patterns are especially popular in the Northeast.
