Messermeister Avanta Forged 10″ Scalloped Slicer Knife

The Messermeister Avanta 10″ Scalloped Slicer is built for clean, confident slicing through roasts, hams, fresh bread and delicate cakes. Long enough to carry through a full cut in a single stroke, the scalloped edge reduces friction and prevents crushing, leaving every slice clean and even. German X50 stainless steel and triple-riveted walnut Pakkawood handles keep it durable and comfortable in hand, while full tang construction with a solid bolster provides the balance needed for long-stroke slicing.

Founded in 1981 by Bernd and Debbie Dressler, Messermeister has spent more than four decades earning its place in professional and home kitchens alike. Now a women-owned, California-based company with deep German heritage, “messer” meaning knife and “meister” meaning master, the brand is led by Debra Dressler and her daughters Kirsten and Chelcea, continuing a second-generation mission to bring innovation, sustainability and craftsmanship to every blade.
