Victorinox Cutlery 10-Inch Round Tip Slicing Knife, Black Fibrox Handle

I have ,as a professional cook,done a lot of banquet and buffet duty using the 12" Granton edge version-rosewood handle. Cross rib,Prime Rib,tri tip,turkey,ham,the Forschner was up to the task. A couple years ago..I picked up the non-granton 12" for myself at a yardsale. At home,I rarely roast anything that big...so it didn't get used really until I wanted to slice a potato VERY thin. I was surprised...this second hand knife with it's over-long blade easily made potato chip thin slices and I'd never even properly sharpened it.

Inspired....I gave it a little tuneup on the steel...went to town and got some fresh salmon and wasabi and had a Sashimi binge. I was rather surprised how well it was working and just kept slicing thinner and thinner pieces. Sweet.

The blade is thin..a bit flexy,quite sharp with no drag. As a Sashimi knife...I think the round tip will get reshaped,but in case I need to fillet a salmon or carve a roast-I have plenty of faith. I'll be taking it to work after the holidays to fine edge it on the nice stone there.

For home....10" is plenty long,and if you can do slivers of raw salmon...a roast beef is way easy. Forschner's Fibrox handles don't look as good as the rosewood-but are less apt to get slippery. You can spend more for cosmetic reasons....get a brand with a more artsy looking handle. I'd rather be more fussy about the food and use one of these to get beautiful thin slices...like the pros

This knife is perfect for slicing meats. I'm a BBQ fanatic and I haven't found a better tool for briskets. The Victorinox brand has a long history of using good quality steel, so I expect to have this knife around for a LONG time. For the price, you really can't go wrong.

One small suggestion...if you're looking at this for slicing bread, get a serrated edge version. What works with meat does not work on bread and vice versa.

I needed a new carving knife and chose this one based on the excellent customer reviews it had received on Amazon. I couldn't be any happier with my purchase! The knife arrived the day before Christmas and I used it to slice the butterflied leg of lamb I made for Christmas dinner. I was amazed at how sharp this knife is! As an experiment, I tried to see how thin I could slice the lamb with this knife. I was surprised to find that I could actually cut thin "shaved" slices of meat. I have not been able to cut meat that thin with any of the older Hoffritz knives I have, even right after sharpening them. I can only imagine how great this knife will be for thinly slicing tomatoes, potatoes, roast beef, and anything else I can throw at it. For the price, I doubt you can find a better carving knife. Highly recommended!
