Slicing Steak
If you are going to slice flank steak for a dish, such as London Broil, using a chef’s knife will work fine as the slices should be a little thicker.
For sandwiches using leftover flank steak choose a knife with a serrated edge. The scalloped edge on the knife will let you slice the beef as thin as you like without tearing the fibers.
