Tasks
A scalloped utility knife is a great tool for anyone who needs a versatile, reliable knife for everyday kitchen tasks—especially those that require a serrated edge for tough exteriors or delicate textures.
Care
Do not place in dishwasher… Seriously, don’t even think about it!
Hand-wash only with warm water and a mild detergent; rise and dry immediately
Clean the blade right away after slicing acidic or salty foods like tomatoes, citrus and vinegar based items
The 5” Meridian Elite Scalloped Utility Knife is a compact powerhouse with a bite. Its scalloped serrations grip and glide through foods that tend to squish under straight blades—think tomatoes, citrus, bagels, and charcuterie. Precision-forged in Germany from high-carbon stainless steel, it holds its edge longer and handles like a dream. The balance, control, and sharpness make it your daily prep MVP, from breakfast spreads to picnic-ready snacks. Once it’s in your rotation, you won’t want to prep without it.
