Dexter Russell SofGrip 8" Scalloped Utility Slicer 24253 SG1158SC

The 8" serrated utility slicing knife is a versatile tool that can be used for various cutting tasks in the kitchen.  This knife is perfect for slicing bread, both soft and crusty. Hold the loaf firmly with one hand and use a sawing motion with the knife to create even slices. The serrations grip the bread's surface, making it easier to cut without squishing the loaf. The serrations of the knife work well for slicing through soft-skinned fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, peaches, and plums. Use a gentle sawing motion to prevent crushing or tearing. 

For slicing sausages, salami, or deli meats, the serrated knife can make precise and even cuts. Hold the meat or sausage firmly and slice with a sawing motion. While it's not as long as a traditional carving knife, you can still use the serrated utility knife to carve smaller roasts, like a chicken or pork loin. The serrations can help you achieve clean slices. When dealing with crusty bread or baguettes, the serrated edge of the knife is excellent for breaking through the tough outer crust while maintaining the soft interior. Use a sawing motion to create clean cuts. If you need to level or split cake layers horizontally, the serrated utility knife can be handy. Carefully score the cake's edge and then make a gentle sawing motion to create even layers. You can use the serrated utility knife to cut through hard cheeses like cheddar, Parmesan, or Gouda. Apply gentle pressure and use a sawing motion for clean cuts.
