Serious answer is that we just use our K05 serrated kitchen knives.

Re: Spyderco for steak
Any time I need a knife while using paper plates I use my Pacific Salt LC200N. The only thing is that I have to use two plates so I don’t cut through them lol
40 Spyderco knives in 11 different steels,

The upcoming Counter Critter which fittingly only comes in SpyderEdge.

Re: Spyderco for steak
The SE ARK is my go-to for any meat cutting on a plate. Can't beat that belly and positive blade angle for cutting on a flat surface. Mine has cut it's fair share of steaks
If I'm cutting against a ceramic plate, I'm definitely choosing something with serrations, otherwise being extremely careful not to hit the edge of a plain edge knife on the plate -- makes me cringe.

When I saw the K2 all I could think of was steak.
Re: Spyderco for steak
Bow River makes a great steak knife. Thinking about getting 3 more to fill an empty knife block so when my family of savages come over they don't ruin my good knives.Jerome Howard wrote: ↑Sun Apr 09, 2023 8:27 pmI find myself using my PE Enduras for steak knives. Even my wife likes using them for steaks and other meats.
Anyone else find that they make great steak knives?
I use them more than my Wusthofs
Or what do you use from your collection for such purpose?
If I didn't know any better I would think they were trying to cut through the plate.
Re: Spyderco for steak
I use and have gifted the Wusthof 8-piece, 4-inch, serrated, stainless steel steak knives. Does the job, not too expensive ($130 for the set) and look good.

Re: Spyderco for steak
I like using a serrated Z-Cut or a coarse-edge Mule for food prep and eating. They stay sharp longer than my other kitchen knives. And I smile big when I use them!
Re: Spyderco for steak
I've used my Sprig as a steak knife. The Bow River, too, but I prefer the Sprig.

The new "Critters were designed to be a steak knife.

Lighting and camera angle had to be just right. It typically had a more blue/grey hue. I always loved how that shot turned out though.

Re: Spyderco for steak
The Z Cuts are quite good for steak too, I was using the SE version before I started using my MagnaCut Mule so much.

Re: Spyderco for steak
Nice…the Z-Cut is a super utility knife. The introduction of the Sharpmaker made serrated edges much easier to maintain.
Re: Spyderco for steak
I will use any Spyderco in my pocket for steak if I think they are better than the knife provided. I have used both my Cru-carta PM2, and myK390 Endela for steak when the knives provided were less than acceptable. Neither suffered catastrophic failure, and the steak was delicious!
Re: Spyderco for steak
I cut a McChicken in half today with a Pacific Salt PE if that counts….
