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.

  • Mercer Genesis Series 10 in. Carving Knife

    Uniform Slices, Unmatched Stability Handling the Mercer Genesis 10-inch Carving Knife reveals a tool built for the specific physics of long, continuous strokes. Unlike shorter utility knives that require a sawing motion—which can tear delicate proteins—this carver allows for a single, sweeping pull through prime rib, turkey breast, or smoked brisket. The 10-inch (254mm) blade provides the necessary length to clear large cuts in one pass, ensuring the even, restaurant-quality slices that preserve the juices within the meat. The tactile experience starts with the handle. The Santoprene material remains tacky even when your hands are wet or greasy, a critical safety feature during high-volume prep. You can feel the balance provided by the forged bolster, which anchors the knife in your palm and shifts the center of gravity toward the heel. This weight distribution minimizes wrist fatigue when slicing through 20-pound turkeys or large salmon fillets. The X50CrMoV15 German steel alloy is tempered to a Rockwell Hardness of 56. This specific hardness is a deliberate choice for the Genesis line; it is hard enough to maintain a 15-degree edge through a full shift but remains 'tough' enough to resist chipping if it contacts a bone. The 50/50 bevel ensures straight tracking through the cut, preventing the blade from veering to one side. This is an essential tool for any kitchen where presentation and portion control are paramount. Learn More
