J. A. Henckels slicer drop forged and hand ground but with no hand forging, suggesting 1960s manufacture with the narrow bolster. Comes with fresh edge. 

This knife has been sharpened in a bit and thinned a little behind the edge, not totally reworked, it has a tough convex face behind the edge which will keep it from chipping grazing bone (think rack of lamb or carving around bone in steak).

9 1/8" cutting edge, 14" overall length

This is a carbon steel knife. Carbon steel is expected to develop a dark patina with use. It needs to be hand washed and towel dried soon after use. Do not air dry. Do not put it in the dishwasher. Long exposure to moisture and debris will result in rust. Any rust development should be removed with a light abrasive.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
