The Dexter Russell SANI-SAFE® 12″ Cheese Knife is a reliable tool for commercial kitchens, delis, and food preparation environments. With a 12-inch blade and 17-inch overall length, this knife is ideal for cutting large blocks of cheese as well as large produce such as watermelon.
The blade is constructed from proprietary DEXSTEEL™, a high-carbon steel designed to hold a fine, long-lasting edge. Each blade is individually ground and honed to ensure consistent sharpness and performance. The stain-resistant finish helps maintain a professional appearance during daily use.
The SANI-SAFE® handle is made from durable polypropylene and features a textured, slip-resistant surface for a secure grip. The impervious seal between the blade and handle prevents food particles from collecting, supporting sanitary food preparation and helping the knife meet NSF standards. The handle is easy to clean and withstands both high and low temperatures, making it suitable for demanding kitchen environments.
Dexter Russell SANI-SAFE® knives are widely used in restaurants, delis, pizza shops, and home kitchens around the world, continuing a tradition of quality craftsmanship since 1818.
