It's not a Graton Slicer for meat. It's for cake and bread.

Thanks, bought one of each. I've never heard of this brand, but I'm a huge fan of the Victorinox knives. After reading the reviews of these knives, I'm hoping for a similar experience.

Even the best knifes will require resharpening and eventually wear out. It's actually cheaper and better to resharpen cheap knifes more often then expensive ones less often
