MAC knives' legendary razor-like edges are sharper than those of any major cultery manufacturer. One slice with our knives and you will experience for yourself the true definition of sharpness. MAC knives feature thin, flexible blades which glide effortlessly through fruits, vegetables, meats, & fish. Other knives, especially those of forged construction, have thick, stiff blades which actually "wedge" in the cut and must be forceably pushed through to complete each slice. MAC knives have been hardened to 57-61 degrees Rockwell C. Other knives are "softer" and consequently the edges change shape and dull more quickly in use.
We gave Executive Chef Bevan Terry from Rogues Restaurant a MAC TH-80 knife a year ago to put to the test in his busy kitchen. "I love my MAC. I call it my butter knife because it goes through everything like butter."
