G&T Slicer

No drinks cabinet left behind.

We originally made this knife in a shameless attempt to curry favour with a barman in an establishment dear to our hearts. Working on the principles that if any free knives make an appearance they get gobbled up by the kitchen, and that having to cut up piles of cucumber, limes and lemon with a pound-shop special all night long is not much fun, we made him this little scalpel-like beauty, in the hope that he might look favourably upon us when the bar was busy but we were thirsty.

It all worked out splendidly, and so we can’t recommend this knife highly enough on that basis alone. However, it is also a very handy little utility knife to have about the kitchen, with baby tomatoes, radishes and other items of that nature yielding to its meticulous geometry.

As with every Savernake, the G&T slicer features our trademark concave blade, expertly blended into a tapering convex cutting edge. The blade’s concavity allows the knife to have both a sturdy spine and a cutting edge best measured in microns. It also removes excess weight and encumbrance from the side of the blade and is – in short – the business.
