Steak knives

A steak knife is a knife with a slim but strong, often smooth blade. Very finely serrated steak knives are available too. That makes the blade sharper for longer. It won't make much difference to the cut. But if the steak knife is serrated, it is important to ensure the right edge is sharpened. Otherwise you might destroy the serrated edges. A steak knife is used to cut roast meat. The blade is approximately 12 cm long
