Carving Forks
Carving forks come in two forms: straight and curved. Straight forks are the predecessor to tongs and are typically used for maneuvering meats in a sauté pan or piercing and bleeding cuts that are cooked to a higher level of doneness. Curved forks are useful in that the tines never interfere with cutting and are otherwise ideal when used as a pot fork to lift turkeys, casseroles, etc. from the oven.

Mercer Millennia 8 in. Straight Fork
Secure Heavy Roasts with Zero Slip The Mercer Millennia 8-inch Straight Fork (M23800) is engineered specifically for the tactile demands of a professional carving station. Unlike consumer-grade forks that flex under the weight of a heavy steam-ship round or whole turkey, these one-piece tines are forged from X30Cr13 stainless steel, providing the rigidity necessary to hold meat stationary while a slicer makes precise passes. The straight tine geometry is optimized for vertical stabilization, allowing you to pin the protein to the board without tearing the grain of the meat. In high-heat, high-moisture environments, handle security is a safety mandate. The Millennia handle utilizes a specialized blend of Santoprene and polypropylene. This results in a soft-touch exterior that maintains its non-slip properties even when your hands are wet or covered in rendered fats. During long shifts in a banquet line or culinary classroom, the ergonomic contouring reduces hand fatigue and prevents the hot-spots common with traditional riveted handles. This tool is built to withstand the rigors of commercial sanitization and temperature fluctuations without material breakdown or handle-to-steel separation. Learn More$22.25
