What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Wusthof Gourmet 14-inch Brisket Slicer for its specialized performance on large roasts. The exceptional blade length allows for single smooth passes, yielding uniform slices without tearing. Users consistently highlight the superb out of the box sharpness expected from Wusthof. A key feature is the hollow edge design, which significantly reduces friction, preventing sticky meats from adhering for cleaner cuts. While lighter than forged alternatives, many find this reduced weight less fatiguing for long slicing tasks. Despite requiring careful hand washing, owners feel this slicer is a worthwhile investment, dramatically improving carving efficiency and presentation quality.
Know before you buy
The extra length is specifically designed to slice through large cuts of meat, like brisket or whole roasts, in a single, smooth motion. This prevents the need for a sawing action, which helps keep the meat fibers intact and the slices clean.
The hollow edge features small indentations along the blade that create tiny air pockets between the steel and the meat. This reduces friction and prevents thin slices from sticking to the knife as you cut.
No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. High-heat cycles and harsh detergents can damage the handle and dull the blade's edge, so we recommend hand-washing it with warm water and mild soap, then drying it immediately.
Full-tang means the metal of the blade extends all the way through the handle. This provides superior balance, stability, and strength, ensuring the knife won't snap or loosen at the handle under the pressure of carving large roasts.
This high-carbon stainless steel is a professional-grade material known for its excellent edge retention and resistance to corrosion. It is designed to stay sharp through heavy use while remaining relatively easy to hone when it eventually loses its initial bite.
