Collection: Bread Knives

A classic amongst the range of knives that belong in every kitchen: as well as bread, this knife is suitable for use on hard-skinned vegetables and fruit, as well as for roasts, especially those with crackling. The concave (inwardly curved), serrated edge of the knife works like the teeth of a saw, but is much finer, so no pressure is required to cut any sort of bread and even a hard crust will allow a clean cut. The small blunt section at the tip of the blade is designed for extra crusty loaves. As you slice down to the bottom of the loaf, simply lift the handle up and use the blunt tip to slice through the hard bottom crust.

After a chef's knife and a paring knife, some cooks say that the knife they most can't live without is their bread knife. It's a crime to ruin a fresh loaf of bread by smashing it beneath the blade of a dull knife. The wide, “low frequency" serrations on the Shun Classic Bread Knife are not only razor-sharp, but they do a much better job slicing any type of bread than a straight-edged knife. The undulating serrations provide the power you need to gently saw through a crusty loaf without tearing the tender interior. And it works equally well on very soft breads and even pastries.

• Slice tender or crusty breads with no ripping, squashing, or tearing
• Proprietary VG-MAX cutting core is wear and corrosion resistant, strong, and very fine-grained to enable a razor-sharp, long-lasting, single-bevel 16° edge
• 34 layers of stainless Damascus cladding each side (68 total); support the core, add stain resistance, and help food release from the blade
• D-shaped ebony-finished Pakkawood handles are comfortable for both left- and right-handed users; durable, beautiful, and won't harbor bacteria
• Full composite tang for light weight and perfect balance
• Handcrafted in Japan

WÜSTHOF's precise, double-serrated edge makes a clear difference with this bread knife: in contrast with a single-serrated edge, this knife has serrations within the serrations, meaning that it remains sharp for longer, requires less pressure and is suitable for very precise, smooth cuts. Bread with a hard crust is not crushed when sliced with this double-serrated blade, while bread with a soft crust is also sliced cleanly, without any tearing of the delicate surface. The small blunt section at the tip of the blade is designed for extra crusty loaves. As you slice down to the bottom of the loaf, simply lift the handle up and use the blunt tip to slice through the hard bottom crust.

      • USE & CARE

        • Hand-wash only, do not expose to hot temperatures. Wood handles should not be submerged in water for extensive periods of time. Dry blade and handle immediately after water exposure. Do not use on hard ingredients such as bones, frozen food, or hard surfaces to avoid damaging the cutting edge. Knives should be sharpened at least every week using a honing steel, a wet stone or any other knife sharpener respecting the cutting angle of 25°. Knives should be stored in a block, magnetic bar or sheath to avoid causing blade damage.

Although the serrated edge of the All-Purpose Serrated Utility Knife is inspired by the juicy, sun-ripened tomatoes that southern Italy is famous for, consider this nimble knife an effective slicer for almost anything in your kitchen -- from fresh and aged cheeses to cured meats, fruits, vegetables, soft dinner rolls, and crusty baguettes.

The serrated blade slices cleanly and elegantly without crushing or tearing, and a full bolster offers added protection for your fingers. The custom-grained Calabrian olive wood handle is naturally water-resistant and antibacterial, and its organic shape fits comfortably in hands of any size.

Anyone who picks up the Amici Double-Serrated Bread Knife will be surprised by its unique effectiveness. While most bread knives have single serration, our innovative, precision-sharpened, double-serrated blade features a second serration along the knife’s edge, making it especially efficient for slicing through soft bread and crusty loaves alike -- without crushing or tearing. (Insider tip: you can also use it to slice those larger, tough-skinned gourds, like pumpkins and butternut squash!) A full bolster - the thicker area between the blade and the handle on forged knives - protects your fingers during any slicing or carving. The small blunt section at the tip of the blade is designed for extra crusty loaves. As you slice down to the bottom of the loaf, simply lift the handle up and use the blunt tip to slice through the hard bottom crust. The custom-grained Calabrian olive wood handle is naturally water-resistant and antibacterial, and its organic shape fits comfortably in hands of any size.
