Twelve inches of scalloped stain-free high carbon steel in the Traditional pattern. The length is the point — it crosses a full roast or a wide loaf in one draw, and the scallops mean it starts on a crust rather than sliding across it.
It carves roasts and slices bread with equal ease, which makes it a sensible single knife for a household that does both and does not want two 12-inch blades. On a holiday table it handles the ham and the loaf.
Dexter-Russell has made cutlery in Southbridge, Massachusetts since 1818 and is the oldest cutlery manufacturer still operating in the United States.
