Mercer Renaissance 10-inch Carving Knife

Holiday roasts and whole birds call for a knife that slices in one long draw. The Renaissance 10-inch Carving Knife is narrower than a chef’s knife, which reduces drag through cooked meat, and long enough to cross a large roast without sawing.

It is forged from one piece of high-carbon German steel with a full tang and a triple-riveted handle, and the short bolster lets the edge be sharpened to the heel.


Carving Set

Pair it with the Renaissance 6-inch Carving Fork. The Genesis 10-inch Carving Knife is the same length with a softer, non-slip handle.

    Care

    • Wash by hand after each use with warm water and a mild soap, then dry with a soft towel. Mercer advises against the dishwasher: heat can break down the handle, and caustic detergent can stain and pit the blade.
    • Do not leave the knife soaking. If chlorine or bleach touches the blade, rinse it off at once.
    • Avoid long contact with aluminum pans or a stainless steel sink, and do not leave the knife standing in condiments held in metal pans. Prolonged contact can cause pitting.
    • Store the knife in a block, on a magnetic bar or in a knife guard.
