Best Brisket Knife

[spartyonjoe]

Anyone have any good recommendations for a slicing brisket knife? My standard chef knives don’t seem to work well for me.

I purchased a 14 inch Mercer Culinary Edge Slicer a couple years back and LOVE it!

Highly recommend.

Thanks! I’ll look at them too? Hopefully they have a 14in. I cook big briskets

I have the 12" Victorinox. But, get the 14" if you get the chance. Make sure you have a good stone to keep it sharp. Sharpness is more important than most anything else.

I have this one also. Love it. I too highly recommend it.

I recently bought this DMT diamond lap. It's 10" x 4", which provides plenty of room for big knives and it stays put with the base with rubber feet. Best setup I've had.

I've got a Dalstrong Gladiator 12" with the Grayton edge that I like a lot:

I like my 14" Mercer Culinary Millennia Granton brisket knife. About $25 on Amazon.

@mikeporter616, how do like the Dalstrong? I've heard nothing but good things about them and I want their Shogun 12" Slicer really bad. Don't need it just want it!

I currenly have the 12" Nexus from Cutlery and More.

I've used this knife a lot and I think it is perhaps the best I have evert had! Highly recommended!

I have a wusthof Ikon super slicer. It does a really good job.

I almost bought the nexus this weekend. It was on sale for $80.

The metal in this knife really holds an edge.

I have the regular non-granton edge 12" Victorinox. I think it does a great job. I've used the granton edge version too and can't really tell a difference on brisket.

Does a wonderful job on slicing pit beef, turkey breast, prime rib, whatever...

I have the Mercer 11-inch and it's great. Fantastic for slicing any roast in addition to brisket.

We have both, a Victorinox 12" straight carving knife with granton groove as well as a Victorinox 12" serrated edge carving knife.

If the meat has a hard bark, the serrated knife is noticeably better able to break through the bark and slice.
