The serrated edge of this bread knife has medium depth serrations with high bevels that are polished and ground into the blade by hand, providing smooth and precise cutting feel. The cherry handle is also shaped and sanded to fit comfortably in your hand. This shape of bread knife comes from the silhouette of Windmühlenmesser bread knives from the 1920s.

This knife is a great all-around bread knife, cutting confidently through tough crusts but it not so aggressive that it will tear crumb of softer breads and cakes.

This is a stainless steel knife. It should be hand washed and towel dried. Habitual dishwasher use will result in degraded edge and handle. Consistent long term exposure to moisture can lead to oxidation.

Use on a quality wooden cutting board will help the knife stay sharper for longer. Use on hard surfaces like plates and bamboo will reduce the edge life and can result in edge damage.

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones. We have found that most western knives perform best with a medium finish starting around 1000 grit. Avoid pull through sharpeners and non-water cooled mechanized sharpening. Steel honing rods work well with this knife.
