Carving & Slicing Knives
Carving and slicing knives are designed to be used when slicing meat. Both carving and slicing knives have long, thin, blades that typically range from 8 to 14 inches in length. This enables the user to create a long slice of meat or fish in a single stroke avoiding unnecessary back and forth sawing motions that tear at flesh and jeopardize the cleanliness of the cut. The thinness of the blade lends versatility to the carving knife which is often used by chefs when slicing wellington, cordon bleu, and other breaded dishes. Carving knives come to a sharp point unlike slicers also known as slicing knives. The tip of a slicing knife has been rounded for the protection of anyone on the other side of a carving station who may be overly eager to reach in for an extra helping of roast beef. Note that a Granton or Kullenschliff edge is most appropriate when applied to this knife shape as opposed to any other.

Kyocera Innovation Black 5" Slicer (ZK-130 BK)
A lightweight ceramic slicer designed for clean, precise cuts on fruits, vegetables, and boneless proteins. The Kyocera Innovation Black 5" Slicer is built for tasks that benefit from a longer, narrower blade. It provides control during slicing and helps produce even, consistent cuts. The blade is made from zirconia ceramic. It holds its edge longer than steel and does not react with food. It will not transfer metallic taste or cause browning in ingredients like apples, avocados, citrus, or tomatoes. This knife produces very clean cuts. The narrow blade moves through food with minimal resistance and leaves smooth, even surfaces. It is especially useful for slicing high-acid ingredients and delicate items where clean cuts matter. It also works well for sandwich prep and other off-the-board tasks where a larger knife feels cumbersome. Ceramic behaves differently than steel. It stays sharp for a long time, but it is not flexible. It can chip if used on hard materials or if the blade is twisted during use. Use it for fruits, vegetables, and boneless proteins. Do not use it on bones, frozen foods, or hard squash. Avoid prying or applying lateral pressure. The lightweight construction reduces fatigue during repetitive slicing. The upward-angled handle provides a secure grip and helps keep your knuckles clear of the cutting surface. The blade will not rust or corrode. When sharpening is needed, it requires a diamond wheel or professional service.
Who This Is For Users who want clean, even slices with minimal effort Prep work involving fruits, vegetables, and high-acid ingredients Cooks who prefer a lightweight knife for controlled slicing and off-board work Not ideal for: Hard materials such as bones, frozen foods, or hard squash Heavy-duty cutting or chopping tasks Users who prefer a flexible or heavier steel blade Learn More$65.00
