Messermeister Pro Series 25cm Breaking Knife

The Messermeister Pro Series breaking knife 25 cm (10 inch) is built for heavy butchering and breakdown work, designed to turn large quarters of beef, pork, or lamb into smaller roasts and manageable pieces. Preferred by culinary professionals and butchers, it’s an excellent choice for most breakdown tasks where reach and power make the job easier.

Its long stamped blade curves upward to a pointed tip, helping you “break” through skin, cartilage, and small bones while keeping control around tougher areas and joints. The razor-sharp edge trims through fat cleanly and makes it easy to portion larger cuts into individual servings with consistent results.

The one-piece stamped blade is made from German 1.4116 stainless carbon alloy for toughness, stain and corrosion resistance, reliable edge retention, and easy resharpening to a razor-like edge. The blade is heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell hardness of 56–57 for dependable performance in demanding prep environments.

For commercial kitchen use, the Pro Series features an over-sized, hygienic molded polypropylene handle with a non-slip feel, offering comfort and security during longer breakdown sessions. Handcrafted in Santa Catarina, Portugal, it’s a dependable workhorse for serious meat prep.

Care of the knife:

Hand-wash with warm water and a mild detergent; rinse and dry immediately.

Do not place in dishwasher. Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts.
