cutting knife
Sharp kitchen implement
A cutting knife is simply a knife used for cutting—a somewhat redundant term since cutting is what knives do.
The phrase appears in contexts where specification seems necessary: a bread cutting knife, a pizza cutting knife.
On its own, cutting knife usually means a general-purpose kitchen knife for slicing and chopping, as distinct from specialized knives like paring knives or cleavers.
