Dexter-Russell Sani-Safe 5-inch Produce Knife

Dexter-Russell’s Sani-Safe 5-inch produce knife has a blunted safety tip, so a prep cook can work quickly through a case of lettuce or peppers without a sharp point at the end of each stroke. Dexter calls it versatile enough for bulk vegetable processing or precise finishing work, and it suits produce departments, salad bars and home cooks alike. Grocers use it to trim blemishes and to split fruit to show or check ripeness. The sealed, sanitary handle stands up to repeated washing in a busy prep area.

A note on size: the blade actually measures 4.375 inches long and 0.75 inch wide. Dexter has listed it as a 5-inch produce knife for many years and customers search for it by that size, so we keep the 5-inch name to avoid any confusion with the knife they have ordered before.

5-inch or 6-inch?

The Sani-Safe 6-inch Produce Knife has the same shape with more reach for melons and cabbage.
