Carving Knives

tpenick · 11-12-2012, 05:38 PM

I'm in the market for a good carving knife for all the goodies I pull off the smoker. Any suggestions?

Victorinox 12" slicer. $40

Amazon.com: Victorinox 12-Inch Granton Edge Slicing Knife with Fibrox Handle: Kitchen & Dining

Yep, that one for sure and maybe a good Chef's knife.

Virtorinox makes killer chef knives too. ;)

I have one and it is great. What do you use to store it?

Me too. Victorinox 12 is a great knife. Ive found is a wall mount magnetic knife rack to be a great option for storage. Holds multiple knives of almost any length safely and securely.

I like Victorionox. A Brethren- Slamdunkpro in Sales and Ventures sells one that is excellent also

For my 14 inch slicing knife I have one similar to this:

Amazon.com: Messermeister Edge-Guard/Slicer, 14-Inch: Kitchen & Dining

It just a plastic sleeve that your knife slides into.

For all my other shorter knives I use these:

Amazon.com: Victorinox Cutlery Edge-Mag 7-Inch Magnetic Knife Blade Protector, Set of 3: Home & Kitchen

They work great and have different sizes.

I use the same one, got it from Sur La Table for like 4 bucks. Works great

I have a wooden wustoff block that it fits in the top slot. :)

I knew the Brethren would have some advice for me! Thanks!

Just don't get a serrated blade knife unless you want a throw-away. They are next to impossible to sharpen when they get dull. Not impossible, just that they require special equipment to sharpen correctly. YMMV
