The Satake Professional tranchér knife is a blade especially adapted for cutting meat. The blade has what is called an olive grinding that stops food from sticking to the edge — the small olive-shaped recesses prevent a vacuum from forming between the knife and the ingredients, making the food easier to cut. The long blade makes it easy to slice larger meat pieces. This Professional tranchér knife is part of a series of knives from Satake that was produced in collaboration with professional chefs, rendering this a blade that will really enhance the cooking experience in your kitchen.
