MAC Chef Series 8-inch Chef’s Knife with Dimples
The TH-80 is the Chef Series counterpart to the Professional MTH-80. Both are 8-inch knives with dimples. The TH-80 has no bolster, so it is the lighter of the two and the blade runs straight back into the handle, which suits cooks who choke up on the blade or work long prep lists.Where It Fits in a Day of PrepThe thin Chef Series blade passes through onions and carrots with little wedging, and the dimples help release sliced potatoes, cucumbers and soft cheese. The profile has enough curve to rock through herbs. It is light enough to use for hours, though the absence of a bolster means less weight to drive the edge through dense squash.The same blade comes in a 10-inch length for larger volumes of prep, and the BK-80 is the undimpled version.

MAC Ultimate 9-inch Chef’s Knife
Cooks who like the weight of a German forged knife but want a thinner Japanese edge are the audience MAC designed the Ultimate Series for. The SBK-95 has the look and feel of a forged German chef’s knife, with a thinner blade.The larger bolster puts more weight behind the edge, which helps when chopping winter squash, breaking down a chicken at the joints or pushing through a pile of root vegetables. The blade is still stamped and thin enough to slice tomatoes cleanly, so the weight serves control rather than brute force. The trade-off is a knife that is heavier in the hand over a long prep list than the Chef or Professional models.The 10.25-inch SBK-105 is the longer Ultimate chef’s knife. For a lighter bolstered knife, compare the Professional MBK-85 and MBK-95. Our kitchen knife shapes guide explains the French chef’s knife shape both lines follow. Learn More$319.95 -
MAC Chef Series 8.5-inch Chef’s Knife
The HB-85 is the entry point to MAC chef’s knives: a narrow, light 8.5-inch blade in the Chef Series, stamped and bolsterless. It suits a cook buying a first Japanese knife and a professional who wants a spare knife for the line.The narrow blade gives a little more length than the 8-inch models for slicing proteins and long vegetables, and its low height makes it quick through onions and peppers. With less steel behind the edge, it is lighter than the BK-80 and less suited to dense squash or chopping through hard rinds.Choosing Between the Chef Series KnivesFor a taller blade and more knuckle clearance, see the BK-80. For a shorter knife from the same family, the 7.25-inch HB-70 is a compact gyuto for small boards. Our guide to kitchen knife shapes explains how blade height and profile change the way a knife cuts.

MAC Professional 10.5-inch Bread and Roast Slicer
The Mac Professional 10.5-inch Bread and Roast Slicer has a scalloped serrated blade that cuts through roasts and breads without shredding. The blade’s extra length allows you to cut thin slices with little effort.This knife makes an excellent pastry knife; its gentle scallop serrations produce little crumb, and its bowed shape is great for layering cakes. This is a beautifully designed bread knife that we highly recommend for any serious baker or pastry chef.The bolster gives the same grip as the other Professional knives. Compare it with the Superior SB-105, whose scallops are reversed, and the shorter BS-90. Our guide to knife shapes explains bread knife edges. Learn More$157.95
