The Cuisine::pro® LE CONNOISSEUR™ carving knife is a useful tool for any cook who loves to entertain. Narrower than a chef’s knife, its long, thin, curved blade follows contours of meat and guides slices cleanly away from the bone. Well suited to carving and serving large roasts, filets, and poultry, this beautifully designed knife delivers precise, uniform portions and exceptional control. The blade is made from German stainless steel 1.4116, measured at 55 on the Rockwell hardness scale. Handle construction: Contoured walnut pakkawood, half bolster + endcap. Hand wash with mild soap and warm water, then rinse and dry immediately. Do not place in the dishwasher. Backed by the Cuisine::pro lifetime warranty. Recommended uses: Cooked Meat.
