Wusthof Classic Super Slicer, Wavy Edge (serrated), 10-inch (26 cm) - 4532 Wusthof Meat Cleavers It's not like a Western

Perfect for slicing nearly anything in the kitchen (great for crusty items). The reverse (scalloped) serrations won't tear delicate items and edges as much as traditional pointy serrations do.
