Mac Professional 10.6 in. (270mm) Mighty Slicer

A 270mm blade that is narrow and thin from heel to tip, the MSL-105 is the long, plain-edged slicer for roasts and large fish. Narrow blades leave less steel in contact with the meat, so the cut has less drag and the slice keeps its shape.

It handles a whole turkey breast, a side of salmon or a pork loin with long, single strokes, and its weight keeps the blade on line through a dense roast. On a carving station it can work beside a scalloped bread and roast slicer used for the softer cuts.

For a wider blade, see the MKS-105. For the longest MAC slicer, see the 11.25-inch SL-115. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains slicers.

    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.
