Case XX Tomato Slicer

A serrated edge acts like a saw, allowing you to pierce the tough skin of a tomato without applying downward pressure. This prevents the blade from crushing the soft interior, ensuring your slices remain intact and uniform.

Full tang means the metal of the blade extends all the way through the handle. This design provides superior balance, stability, and durability, making the knife feel solid and secure in your hand during use.

No, the natural walnut handle should be hand-washed and dried immediately. Dishwashers can cause the wood to warp, crack, or lose its finish over time.

Absolutely. While designed for tomatoes, the serrated edge is excellent for any produce with a delicate skin and soft interior, such as peaches, plums, or even crusty bread rolls.

Serrated blades hold their edge longer than straight blades, but they are more difficult to sharpen at home. You can maintain it by using a honing rod specifically designed for serrations or by sending it to a professional sharpener when it eventually dulls.
