★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 4.52 Stars (21 reviews)

A 9-inch serrated bread knife built on a 67-layer Damascus blade with a 10Cr15CoMoV core. Deep scalloped teeth saw through crackling sourdough crust and soft crumb without crushing the loaf, and a 15-degree-per-side grind keeps each tooth biting cleanly. Full-tang construction runs the length of the rosewood handle for balance on long, drawing cuts.

Yu Series

The Loaf-Length Bread Knife

The Yu B13R is the workhorse slicer of the range. Nine inches of serrated Damascus clears most loaves in a single drawing stroke, so you finish a slice in one pass instead of sawing back and forth. The 10Cr15CoMoV core sits inside 67 layers of folded steel, hardened to 60±2 HRC and finished with a raindrop pattern that runs the length of the blade.

Why Serrated

Teeth That Slice, Not Squash

A straight edge presses down on a crust and compresses the crumb before it cuts. Serrations work differently: the pointed teeth pierce the crust first, then the scalloped gullets between them shear through the soft interior with almost no downward force. That is why a serrated edge sails through a baguette, a brioche, or a ripe tomato while a chef's knife tears it. The trade-off is honing — you cannot run a serrated edge down a steel like a straight blade, so the teeth are designed to stay sharp far longer between professional regrinds.

The Steel

67 Layers, 10Cr15CoMoV Core

The cutting core is 10Cr15CoMoV, hardened to 60±2 HRC through vacuum heat treatment and a deep-freeze cycle for a stable, fine grain. It is clad in 316/316L stainless Damascus — 33 layers each side, 66 in total — folded to 67 layers and etched into a raindrop pattern. The stainless cladding resists the acids in tomatoes and citrus, so the blade stays clean through a busy prep session.

In The Hand

Full-Tang Rosewood

The handle is rosewood, set on a full tang that runs the full length of the grip and is pinned with brass rivets. A bread knife lives on the draw, not the chop, so balance through a long pull matters more than heft — and the full tang keeps the blade tracking straight from heel to tip. Hand wash and dry the rosewood; it is not dishwasher safe.

FAQs

Can I sharpen a serrated bread knife at home?

Not the way you sharpen a straight edge — you cannot run it down a honing steel. The teeth are reground individually, usually with a tapered rod or by a professional service. The upside is that a quality serrated edge holds its bite for a long time, so it needs attention far less often.

Why is a serrated edge better for bread than a straight knife?

A straight edge compresses a crust and squashes the crumb before it cuts. The pointed teeth on a serrated blade pierce the crust first, then the scalloped gullets shear the soft interior with almost no downward pressure — so the loaf keeps its shape.

What is the blade made of?

A 10Cr15CoMoV core clad in 316/316L stainless Damascus, folded to 67 layers and etched in a raindrop pattern. It is hardened to 60±2 HRC.

How long is the blade?

9 inches (228 mm), long enough to clear most loaves in a single drawing stroke.

Is it dishwasher safe?

No. Hand wash and dry it — the rosewood handle and Damascus blade should not go in the dishwasher.

Can it cut more than bread?

Yes. The serrated edge also handles cakes, brioche, sandwich loaves and soft-skinned produce like tomatoes, where a straight blade would tear or crush.

Is there a warranty?

Yes — a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
