Rada Cutlery Anthem Series Tomato Slicer Knife, Made in USA, Black Handle

Update: 6+ months later and its still as sharp as when I bought it and almost use this every day, I hand wash and dry and use a good wood cutting board that is well oiled. I use this on onions, tomatoes, Sausage Links, Lettuce and speeds right on through with NO effort. This is a very well quality made Serrated slicer knife From RADA made in USA. It uses USA Carbon Steel. While it is sharp, being serrated it's not as razor sharp like a fillet knife would be. The handle is a nice solid piece of Hard wood, polished to a nice smooth surface, but still easy to grip. I like it for slicing fruits and veggies with it. The 5 inch blade and overall length of 9 inches makes this a smaller knife to use, which I really like. smaller than any of my Mercer or Dexter knives which I was looking for a high quality smaller/shorter knife and this RADA fits the bill. I think they make most knifes about 20% to large anyway. Not on the cheaper side, but well worth the bucks, IMO.

Cuts tomatoes and onions like a champ. Which is important if you're making your own subs. For years, my favorite kitchen knives have been ones with aluminum handles that I bought in a grocery store in Decatur, IL some 40+ years ago, sometime between 1975 and 1978. I finally decided to try to track down who made them - there are no manufacturer's stamps anywhere on the knives. I (easily) discovered that Rada makes them. One of the great things about RADA knives (the non-serrated ones) is that they sharpen easily and very quickly using one of those little, rolling, knife-sharpening wheels. The aluminum handles do dull if the knives go thru the dishwasher, but who cares. The serrated tomato slicer has a black plastic handle - not an aluminum handle. Again, who cares. Keep up the good work, Rada.

I grow my own tomatoes and my wife is in charge after that. She really likes this knife for slicing through those 'maters with ease. Of course a tomato must be peeled before eating and I'd <-.like to know how many others out there also peel their tomatoes.--

Low cost, high quality serrated tomato knife. Very thin slices are possible. It's a serrated blade, so if it ever needs sharpening it'll be cheaper to buy another... standard sharpening devices are largely worthless on serrated blades.

I love this knife, I slice a lot of tomatoes at home for daily lunches and it does the job a lot better than my previous knife. I don't think this is much of a minus, but it just doesn't feel like a substantial knife. Maybe it's meant to be so light weight, I don't know.

I only use this when canning tomatoes but gets used alot during this time. Canning tomatoes involves trimming sometimes very soft and sometimes cutting rot off tomatoes. This knife works great.

I like everything about this knife; cuts through tomatoes with ease and without squeezing the life out of the tomato! I totally recommend this and all Rada products to anyone looking for quality knife products; they are long lasting products!

loved it so much that I bought more knives by Rada. super sharp it glides right through tomatoes and fruit.

I like serrated knives because they slice tomato skin and similar vegetables where 'grip' is needed more efficiently. This one was a fair price and cuts well. Use it nearly every day and it's still sharp after several months
