Cooks Knives > Carving Knives, Sets and Forks | Carving Knives, Sets and Forks | | | A carving knife is a large knife (between 20 cm and 38 cm (8 and 15 inches)) that is used to slice thin cuts of meat, including poultry, roasts, hams, and other large cooked meats. A carving knife is much thinner than a chef's knife (particularly at the spine), enabling it to carve thinner, and more precise slices. They are generally shorter and wider than slicing knives.
