Product Information
Full details
The Dick Pro Dynamic Serrated Utility Knife is designed for professional chefs and home cooks who require a reliable, lightweight tool for precision cutting tasks. Its primary benefit is the combination of a high-quality German stainless steel serrated blade and an ergonomic plastic handle, which allows for effortless slicing of foods with tough skins or soft interiors. One caveat is that the 11cm blade length is optimized for smaller tasks, making it less suitable for heavy-duty butchery or slicing large roasts compared to larger kitchen knives.

FAQs
Is this knife dishwasher safe?
While technically resilient, we strongly recommend hand washing to maintain the sharpness of the serrated edge and the longevity of the handle.
Can I sharpen this serrated blade?
Yes, but you will need a specific sharpener designed for serrated edges, such as a tapered sharpening rod, to properly hone each individual tooth.
What is the weight of the knife?
The Dick Pro Dynamic Serrated Utility Knife weighs 40g, making it exceptionally lightweight and easy to maneuver.
What material is the handle made of?
The handle is crafted from a high-quality, solid plastic that is designed for hygiene and long-term durability in professional kitchens.
Is this knife suitable for cutting raw meat?
It is suitable for smaller trimming tasks, but for large cuts of raw meat, a traditional straight-edged chef's knife is usually more effective.
Troubleshooting
The blade seems to lose its grip on food.
Check for food debris stuck in the serrations or ensure the blade is clean and dry. Serrated blades perform best when the edge is free of buildup.
Handle feels slippery during use.
Ensure the handle is wiped completely dry of grease or moisture before use. If the handle appears damaged, discontinue use to ensure safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a ready-to-use tool, no complex setup is required; simply wash the knife before its first use. To maintain the life of your Dick Pro Dynamic knife, follow these care instructions:
- Hand Wash Only: While the material is durable, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to protect the integrity of the blade and handle.
- Avoid Dishwashers: Harsh chemicals and high heat in dishwashers can dull the serrated edge and degrade the handle material over time.
- Storage: Use a knife block or magnetic strip to prevent the serrations from coming into contact with other hard metal utensils, which can cause dulling.
- Cutting Surfaces: Always use a wooden or plastic cutting board. Avoid glass, granite, or metal surfaces as they will damage the fine serrated edge.
