Quality steaks require the serrated blades steak knives to cut through the delicious meat.

Steak knives always have serrated edges, which require different treatment than a straight-edge blade. For example, specially-designed cones are the best way to sharpen serrated blades. The cone shape allows a chef to sharpen each serration separately, thereby preserving the correct shape of the blade.
