Practical Applications & Handling
- Primary Use: Slicing cooked meats (beef, pork, poultry) and delicate fish fillets.
- Ergonomics: Designed for a 'pinch grip' or full-palm grip, fitting various hand sizes comfortably.
- Performance: Thin blade geometry reduces 'drag' against the surface of the meat, preserving juices inside the slice.
Professional Care & Safety Guidelines
- Cleaning: Hand wash only with mild detergent and dry immediately. Avoid the dishwasher to prevent edge dulling and handle degradation.
- Sharpening: Maintain the 15° angle using a ceramic honing rod for daily upkeep and a whetstone for periodic thinning.
