The Various Blade Types of F.DICK Knives

FDick company logo

F.DICK knives are available in a wide variety of blade sizes and types to meet the specific cutting needs of both professional chefs and home cooks. Learn more about flexible and curved blades, and the unique differences between a smooth cutting edge versus a serrated cutting edge.

 

 

SMOOTH CUTTING EDGE 

Produces a smooth, clean cut without pulling the food apart. Knives with a smooth cutting edge are good for cutting hard and soft food.

    

SERRATED EDGE 

The food being cut with this edge design initially comes into contact with the protruding serrations. The serrated edge allows easier cutting and slicing of hard and solid food.

   

GRANTON CUTTING EDGE 

The scallops create air cushions, preventing thin and soft slices from sticking to the blade, particularly with fatty food.

  

CURVED BLADE 

The cutting edge is longer than a straight knife with this curved shape, thus allowing a long drawn cut.

 

FLEXIBLE BLADE 

The thin, highly flexible blade allows precise cutting. It adapts perfectly to the food being cut. The flexible blade is ideal for cutting meat and fish.
