Mercer Genesis 10-inch Carving Knife
A carving knife is narrower than a chef’s knife, so it slices cooked meat thin and even with less drag. The Genesis 10-inch Carving Knife has the length to carve a turkey breast, a ham or a prime rib in long, single strokes, which keeps each slice neat.The forged blade adds steadiness, and the Santoprene handle holds securely when it is slick with juices. The pointed tip follows the breastbone and works around joints to free a leg or thigh.
Carving SetPair it with the Genesis 6.5-inch Carving Fork to hold the roast steady. For very thin slices of brisket or roast beef, see the Millennia 11-inch Granton Edge Slicer. The kitchen knife shapes guide compares carving and slicing knives. Learn More$57.50 -
Mercer Genesis 10-inch Short Bolster Chef’s Knife
Volume prep is easier with a 10-inch blade. The Genesis 10-inch Short Bolster Chef’s Knife covers more of the board on every stroke, so a case of carrots or a tray of peppers goes faster, and the length slices across a melon or a boneless roast in a single draw.The forged blade carries enough weight to move through dense produce with less effort from the hand, and the short bolster leaves the entire edge free for sharpening. The Santoprene handle keeps a secure grip through long, wet prep sessions.A 10-inch knife needs a large cutting board and some practice to steer. Working cooks and students trained on a long knife will find it familiar; home cooks with a small board may prefer the 8-inch.
