MAC Professional 10.5-inch Carving Knife

MAC Professional 10.5-inch Carving Knife

The MKS-105 is the plain-edged slicer of the MAC Professional Series, with the bolster and balance of the Mighty MAC chef’s knives. Its 10.5-inch blade is made for carving roasts, poultry and hams at the table or the carving station.

A long, straight-edged blade gives the cleanest surface on cooked meat because it cuts in one draw instead of sawing. The bolster puts weight near the hand, so the tip stays steady across a wide brisket or a turkey breast.

For a heavier slicer, compare the Ultimate SKS-105. For bread and roasts with one knife, see the scalloped MSB-105. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide describes the carving knife.

Keeping the Edge

MAC steel is harder than most German and American kitchen knife steel, so the edge is maintained with ceramic rather than a steel rod. As a rule of thumb, we use ceramic on steels greater than 60 Rockwell hardness. The MAC black ceramic honing rod and the white ceramic rod touch up the edge between sharpenings, and the MAC Togu sharpener resets the factory angle on a ceramic wheel.

Care

Wash by hand with warm, soapy water and dry the knife at once. Do not put it in a dishwasher.
MAC steel is stainless but not immune to spotting; do not leave the blade wet, soaking or in contact with acidic food.
Cut on wood or plastic boards. Keep the edge away from bone, frozen food and hard shells.
Warranty claims are handled by MAC directly.
