Sophie Brooks – Chef Tools View Profile →
- Blade Performance: The German steel holds its edge exceptionally well, even after heavy use.
- Handle Feel: It's functional and hygienic, but lacks the ergonomic contour of premium models.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
'The Corner Deli' in Bristol needed to speed up its lunch service. Their existing knives were crushing soft bread rolls and slipping on tough-skinned tomatoes, leading to waste and slower prep times.
"We switched to the Dick Pro Dynamic slicers and the difference was immediate. The cuts are clean, fast, and our staff find them much easier to handle. The colour-coding has also made our hygiene checks simpler, which is a huge bonus."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Corner Deli
The deli reduced its sandwich prep time by over 10% and significantly cut down on food waste from poorly sliced ingredients.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Getting Started
- Wash the knife thoroughly with warm, soapy water before its first use.
- Dry it immediately and completely with a soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Assign it to its correct place in your colour-coded knife block or magnetic strip.
- Brief your team that the brown handle is strictly for vegetable preparation.
Keeping It Going
- Hand-wash whenever possible. Dishwashers can be abrasive and dull the blade's edge over time.
- Never leave the knife soaking in a sink where it can be damaged or cause injury.
- Hone the blade periodically with a suitable sharpener to maintain its cutting performance.
- Store it safely and correctly to protect the blade and prevent accidents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the brown handle for?
A: The brown handle is part of the internationally recognised HACCP colour-coding system and is designated for preparing vegetables.
Q: Is this knife dishwasher safe?
A: While the materials are robust, we always recommend hand-washing your professional knives. This preserves the sharpness of the blade for much longer.
Q: What kind of steel is the blade made from?
A: It's crafted from high-quality German stainless steel, known for its excellent durability and edge retention in professional environments.
Q: Can a serrated knife be sharpened?
A: Yes, but it requires a special tapered sharpening rod that fits into the individual serrations. It's different from sharpening a plain-edged knife.
Q: What does 'Pro Dynamic' signify?
A: Pro Dynamic is the name of the Dick knife series designed for intensive, professional kitchen use, offering a fantastic balance of quality, hygiene, and value.
Q: How long is the blade?
A: The blade measures 30.5cm, or 12 inches, making it ideal for slicing larger items like artisan bread, cabbages, and melons.
Q: Is the handle comfortable for long shifts?
A: The knife is lightweight (170g) and features a solid, hygienic plastic handle designed to be functional and reduce fatigue during typical daily use in a busy kitchen.
Q: What is the main use for a commercial kitchen serrated slicer knife?
A: Its primary role is slicing items with a hard crust or skin and a soft interior, most commonly bread, but it's also excellent for tomatoes, citrus fruits, and large vegetables.

Explore more from DickHow HACCP Colour Coding Keeps Your Kitchen Safe
Ever wondered what the different coloured handles on professional knives are all about? It’s not for decoration – it’s a crucial part of a food safety system called HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point). In simple terms, it's a way to stop dangerous bacteria from spreading between different types of food.
Think of it like a traffic light system for your kitchen. This knife's brown handle instantly tells everyone it's for vegetables only. Red is for raw meat, blue for raw fish, yellow for cooked meat, and so on. Using a dedicated catering serrated slicer Dick Pro Dynamic for veg prep prevents bacteria from, say, raw chicken, ever coming into contact with a salad. It’s a simple, visual system that makes your kitchen safer, more efficient, and ready for any health inspection.
