A smoke knife is a culinary tool used in the preparation and presentation of smoked dishes, especially in modern gastronomy. Most often, it describes a knife with either special design or special coating used when cutting the fine smoked meats or fish without damaging its texture. Occasionally, the word also describes any instrument utilized during the course of action of producing the smoke, as would be required with smoke-infused presentations or culinary styles. Smoke knives will help chefs develop the flavor and presentation of smoked foods without losing any precision or aesthetic.
