Slicing Knives

As their name suggests slicing knives are designed to be used when slicing meat. These long, thin blades typically range from 8 to 14 inches in length and are very similar to carving knives with exception to their rounded tips. 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

  • Glestain SO Series 9.8-inch (250mm) Serrated Slicer

    For a light serrated slicer, the SO Series 250mm puts Glestain’s scalloped serrated blade on the plain Home Series handle, which has squared shoulders and no bolster. It is a lighter knife than the K Series version of the same blade.The serrations grip the bark on brisket and the crust on bread, then the thin blade slices the interior without tearing it. It is a big favorite of participants in BBQ competitions, who use it on brisket and tri-tip, and it works as a bread knife and a cake knife at home. In Japan, Glestain markets this shape for cake.With no bolster, the edge runs straight to the handle, so the full length of the blade is available for slicing. It is easy to touch up the edge with just a honing rod.

  • Glestain 12.2 in. (310mm) Beef Slicer

    The SO Series 310mm serrated slicer is the long Glestain slicer on the light Home Series handle. The plain handle has squared shoulders and no bolster, which keeps weight down on a knife that spends its time making long, steady strokes.This slicer is a big favorite of participants in BBQ competitions. On a brisket, a 310mm blade crosses the whole flat in one pass and keeps the bark on every slice. The scalloped serrations grip crust and bark, and the thin blade does not crush the tender meat beneath.At home it slices large loaves, roasts and layer cakes. The edge between the scallops gives a semi-serrated effect that cuts cleanly with little pressure. It is easy to touch up the edge with just a honing rod.
    Other Long SlicersFor a bolstered handle, choose the K Series 310mm Serrated Slicer. The SO Series 250mm Serrated Slicer is shorter. The table below compares every Glestain slicer, and our kitchen knife shapes guide explains bread knives and slicers. Learn More
  • Glestain KE Series 9.4-inch (240mm) Left-Handed Sujihiki

    Left-handed cooks who slice proteins need a slicer that pulls straight in the left hand. The 240mm Left-Handed Sujihiki is Glestain’s KE Series slicer ground as a mirror image of the right-handed 724TSK, with the dimples on the left face, so it tracks true through a long draw cut.It trims and portions fish, slices roasts and hams, and portions poultry breasts into even slices. The dimples reduce friction against the food, which gives cleaner slices of salmon and rare beef, and the bolster and end cap steady the knife through each stroke.An asymmetrical blade cannot be reground for the other hand, so the left-handed model is the only way to get this geometry working for a left-handed cook.
    Other Left-Handed SlicersThe KE Series 270mm Left-Handed Sujihiki adds length for whole fish and large roasts. For chopping, see the 240mm Left-Handed Gyuto. Our guide to knife shapes covers slicers and carving knives. Learn More
