Carving Knives
Originally designed for slicing meats, carving knives have thin, pointed 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. Note that a Granton edge is most appropriate when applied to this knife shape as opposed to any other.

Robert Welch Signature 9 in. Carving Knife
Master the Art of the Perfect Slice with Award-Winning Ergonomics The Robert Welch Signature 9-inch Carving Knife is more than a kitchen tool; it is a precision instrument designed to move through proteins with zero resistance. When you first grip the handle, the tactile feedback is immediate. Developed in consultation with professional chefs, the ergonomic handle features a unique bolster that provides a secure thumb rest and a comfortable finger guard, ensuring your hand doesn't fatigue during high-volume slicing tasks. The 9-inch blade is forged from high-quality X50CrMoV15 German stainless steel, hardened to 55-56 HRC. This specific hardness provides the ideal balance between extreme sharpness and the toughness needed to avoid chipping when navigating around poultry bones or dense holiday roasts. During testing, the long, thin profile of the blade allowed for long, sweeping strokes that produce uniform, restaurant-quality slices without the jagged 'sawing' effect common with shorter, duller blades. Whether you are carving a delicate smoked salmon fillet or a heavy prime rib, the weight distribution of this knife remains centered in the palm. The blade is ground at a precise 15° angle, offering a level of sharpness that rivals Japanese cutlery while maintaining the robustness of European steel. This is the definitive tool for the host who values presentation and the chef who demands technical reliability. Learn More$70.95
