The Messermeister Royale Elite 5 Inch Cheese and Tomato Knife is the perfect addition to any cheese plate. This knife is hand-crafted from the finest German stainless steel. The serrated wavy edge is suitable for cutting soft, medium or hard cheeses, tomatoes, and any soft skinned fruit or vegetable. The fork tip is designed to move pieces from the cutting board to a plate.
Features
The German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy blade resists stains and corrosion, exhibits toughness and durability, holds its edge retention, and is easy to re-sharpen to a razor-like edge.
This knife line is one-piece, hot-drop hammer forged, which produces the strongest blade from heel to tip. The blades are heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58.
The three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool.
The bolsterless heel simplifies all cutting, sharpening and honing tasks, making use of the entire blade from heel to tip.
Handcrafted in the historic cutlery capital of Solingen, Germany.
100% Messermeister quality

This is a great little utility knife. It's my first tomato and cheese knife, and I don't know how I lived without it! Cutting tomatoes and other soft fruits and vegetables has never been easier, and I don't have to be constantly sharpening my paring knives to slice consistently anymore. My Messermeister Knife Set is growing and this is a welcome edition to the new set!

Absolutely LOVE our wonderful cheese knife. Whether it’s a soft washed rind cheese (see photo) or a hard aged Gouda cheese, this knife gives a perfect slice, with a great feel! We host many overnight stays at our home in New Hampshire, where we always lay a morning cheese board out for our family and guests. No more ‘fingers’ in the cheese, and while leaving a beautiful slice along the cheese edge. Highly recommend, worthy of the investment!

I bought a 8”chefs knife, and loved it.
I then saw this knife, and didn’t even know I needed a Tomato knife……….but I did.
This thing works great with all forms of tomatoes, and even cuts limes for margaritas like a champ.

Where has this knife been all my life! It cuts bread, tomatoes and anything that sticks to knives

I’ve enjoyed using plastic handled version of this for 10+ years. It’s still works fine, but wanted to gift myself this lovely wood handled version. Cuts fruits, soft cheeses, tomatoes, Napoleon custard cake like a dream!
