Product Overview
I.O Shen Oriental Slicing Knife – 170mm
The 170mm Oriental Slicing Knife is a wide-bladed, narrow-spined knife that can be used to chop through both meat and vegetables with ease.
This knife can be used to remove meat from bones, and like the Santoku knife, it is good for scooping ingredients into cookware.
Being an asian inspired utensil, the Oriental Slicing Knife is amazing at tenderising meat, crushing garlic, and preparing asian greens and other tasks that involve slicing.
This knife should not be used to split bones because of the narrowness of the knife’s spine and the nature of the blade.
