I need a new knife

[Bearcarver]

I've never been a fan of electric knives. I feel like they are mini chain saws, and if you need a chainsaw to slice it, then I don't want to eat it. LOL. know what i mean? (No offence to anyone who uses one.!)

I do most of my Slicing with an Electric Knife.
However don't pick on Chainsaws---I've done some of my Best cutting with Chainsaws too:

This is the one we have and I've had no issues. I have a manual slicer like some have mentioned. I didn't break the bank for it but I personally like the electric better and it's only $20.

EXCEPT I bought the 14"
Second on this knife! We have a Wustoff set and but their slicer was insanely expensive. Hooked up one of these and LOVE IT. great buy. I bought the $10 plastic blade cover too for safety

There is a company in Dover Ohio called Werthers that make a great knife. Look them up on their web sight. Not cheap but are a great knife.

I like a long serrated knife for brisket

I own a Wusthof version of this. I consider knives to be an investment.

My neighborhood Harbor Freight has the ceramic knives with white blades. I've never tried one and I'm tempted. But I don't need any more knives.

I thought of that too. For the price, I'm usually satisfied with their products. There are some misses but it's okay. I wish they sold battery operated tools though

I 2nd/3rd this kind of knife for briskets as well. The style is great the key is to just get a good reputable one that isn't too expensive.
I bought mine at a restaurant supply store for like $22 since I only use it for brisket.

I also like the giant Dexter Russell Fillet Knife 9" BLADE, like 14vinch overall here:

I use the Dexter Russell as a breaking knife (breaks down big cuts of meat into smaller) when I am deboning and processing wild game I hunt and eat.
It is great as a boning knife as well but you just have to watch breaking off the point (which my brother did). Even with a small tip broken off I use it every year to break down, debone, and process my game for making sausage, regular burger grind, and vac sealing for the year.
I think it was be a little overkill as just a straight brisket knife but I have no doubt it would get the job done and it has a 9" blade and is like 14" in overall length. It should be able to handle any chunk of meat you throw at it :)

I have this and it is an excellent slicing knife. I use it on bread as well.

I alos have the 10" dexter butcher knife. They come very sharp, just not sheath but I just put it up high and away out of reach from anyone but me.

I have a set of Cutco knives- they work great! find a local salesperson and look at their packages.

Im new to the party, so i'll go introduce myself next. But I worked in a professional kitchen japanese and steakhouse for years. And I love my Granton Slicing knife. Very reasonably priced (about 30 bucks) and works great on large chunks of meat. The ground blade helps the meat release from the blade.

So does that mean a meat slicer is like a circular saw.

Table Saw.

I have some really good and old Chicago Cutlery knives. Nearly 40 years old. Very easy to sharpen and steel between uses. But for a good set of inexpensive knives to use outdoors (where accidents happen) during a get together, at the grill/smoker, or tailgating, I have a set of Old Hickory knives. Really nice price for the set.

I use a Dexter 14" Wide Duo-Edge Roast Slicer.
Anything similar is ideal for slicing large cuts of meat.

I think I have the same one.

Though I usually use my global santoku or slicer.

old hickory’s are great knives. They are high enough carbon they sharpen like a dream.

Yes in deed, very easy to sharpen. Old Hickory are also the choice for bush craft modification; you tube has a few videos.

Another vote for the Mercer 14" It is a 14" razor blade! It actually scares me when I use it!
