5.3 Slicing Techniques
For optimal results, hold the knife firmly with the ergonomic handle. Use the carving fork to stabilize the food. Allow the reciprocating serrated blades to do the work, guiding the knife with minimal pressure. For bread, use a gentle sawing motion. For meats, slice against the grain for tender cuts.
