The Messermeister Oliva Elite Multi-Edge Steak Knife is used to slice meat while the serrated tip assists in separating meat from the bone. This steak knife has a fine edge slicing blade with teeth added to the upward curved tip. The main cutting edge on this steak knife is used to slice meat while the saw teeth give added cutting power to the tip when separating meat from the bone. The grip can vary but the knife is usually pulled rather than pushed through the meat.

The Messermeister Oliva Elite knife collection boasts an exquisite natural, Mediterranean olive wood handle in the popular straight tang, forged knife line series. The highly figured, beautiful golden-brown handle provides a secure ergonomic pinch grip with an unsurpassed balance. The blade, bolster and tang are one piece, hot-drop hammer forged from a single billet of the finest German 1.4116 steel alloy and heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58. The 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool. Oliva Elite knives are of heirloom quality and one of the best original forged wood handle knives. Handcrafted in Solingen, Germany.
