The right cheese knife depends on the type of cheese you’re slicing. For soft and semi-soft cheeses, you’ll want a soft cheese knife with holes in the blade. These holes help the cheese not stick to the blade, so you can make a clean cut. For harder cheeses, choose a solid blade or a blade with serrations. A serrated knife will help you slice more effortlessly, and make the cleanest cut. Sometimes cheese knives will have a forked tip, that helps with serving slices from the cheese board to a cracker, or onto a plate.
