{"product_id":"8-inch-bread-knife-elegant-series-b38l-mb","title":"8\" Bread Knife - Elegant Series (B38L)","description":"\u003cp\u003eStop crushing your crusty sourdough. A serrated blade with the right set of teeth cuts through a hard crust and a soft crumb in one forward stroke, no pressing required. This 8-inch bread knife is long enough to clear a wide boule in a single pass without having to restart at the heel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Serrated Edge Advantage\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSerrations grip the crust where a straight edge would slide and compress. You draw the blade back and the teeth do the work, so the crumb stays intact instead of squashing flat. The same principle applies on brioche, on a crusty baguette, and on ripe heirloom tomatoes where a straight blade just pushes the skin around. Light pressure, clean cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDamascus Steel, Linen Micarta Handle\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core is 10Cr15CoMoV high-carbon stainless steel, wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus and vacuum heat-treated to 60-62 HRC. That hardness means the serrations \u003cem\u003estay\u003c\/em\u003e sharp far longer than a soft-steel bread knife would. The linen Micarta handle runs full-tang all the way to the butt, so the knife doesn't feel front-heavy when you're drawing it back through a wide loaf on a board. It's a bread knife that looks good on the bench, not hidden in a drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Steel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 67-layer Damascus with 10Cr15CoMoV core\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardness:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60-62 HRC (Vacuum Heat Treated)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlade Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8-inch bread knife, serrated edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Linen Micarta, full-tang\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slicing sourdough, baguettes, brioche, and ripe tomatoes where a straight edge compresses instead of cuts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elegant Series (B38L)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e B38L-MB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComplete Your Set\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePair it with other pieces in the Elegant Series for a full kitchen lineup that shares the same Damascus build and linen Micarta handle throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Xinzuo Australia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44212300349491,"sku":"B38L-MB","price":85.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0668\/0441\/6563\/files\/8-bread-knife-elegant-series-b38l-9614845.jpg?v=1776591012","url":"https:\/\/xinzuo.com.au\/products\/8-inch-bread-knife-elegant-series-b38l-mb","provider":"Xinzuo Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
