Dick Premier Plus Slicer Knife 21.6cm

The F. Dick Premier Plus slicer is a long, narrow-bladed knife intended for cutting cooked meats, fish, and other proteins where a clean, single-draw slice is needed. At 21.6cm, the blade offers enough length to work through larger joints and roasts without the need to saw, which helps produce cleaner cuts and reduces waste at the carving station.

In a busy kitchen environment, a well-balanced slicer makes a genuine difference during service. The chromium-strengthened stainless steel used in the Premier Plus range is forged rather than stamped, which contributes to edge retention under repeated daily use. The knife holds a working edge well and is straightforward to maintain with regular honing. At 160g, it sits in a practical weight range — substantial enough to feel controlled in the hand without causing fatigue during extended prep.

From an operational standpoint, the Premier Plus slicer is a reliable choice for professional kitchens that need a dependable carving and slicing tool day to day:

• Chromium-strengthened steel provides good resistance to corrosion in wet kitchen conditions
• Forged construction supports consistent edge retention with regular honing
• Blade length suits portioning roasts, whole fish, and larger cuts cleanly
• Ergonomic handle helps reduce hand fatigue during extended carving
• Straightforward to clean and maintain as part of a standard knife-care routine

This knife is suited to professional kitchen use across restaurants, hotels, and contract catering operations. It sits within a mid-range professional tier — kitchens requiring a more entry-level option or a heavier-duty carving knife for very high-volume service will find alternatives within the wider Dick range worth considering.

If you are building out a knife kit or want guidance on which blade styles and sizes best suit your kitchen's prep workflow, the team is happy to help you work through the options.
