DESCRIPTION

Stop crushing your crusty sourdough. A serrated bread knife cuts through a thick crust without pressing down, so the crumb underneath stays intact instead of collapsing flat. Reach for this one for anything with a hard crust and a soft interior. Sourdough and brioche loaves are the obvious use. A ripe roma tomato where you don't want the seeds squeezing out is the one that surprises people.

Serrated Edge, Damascus Spine

The serrated teeth bite into a hard crust and pull through cleanly without you needing to saw back and forth five times. The core is 10Cr15CoMoV high-carbon stainless, vacuum heat-treated to 60±2 HRC, and wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus cladding. That hardness keeps the teeth sharp through far more loaves than a softer bread knife would, and the Damascus pattern runs the full length of the spine so the knife looks good on the bench between uses.

Figured Sycamore, Hidden Rat-Tail Tang (Partial)

The handle is figured sycamore, a dense hardwood with a rippled grain that feels different from the smooth plastics on cheaper bread knives. The blade sits on a hidden rat-tail tang (a partial tang) with a bolster.
