A bread knife is a kitchen staple because, despite its name, it can perform a wide variety of tasks. The key is its serrated edge. Unlike a chef’s knife with its smooth, straight edge, a bread knife features toothy, saw-like scallops or serrations along its cutting edge. This acts just like a saw, slicing through food as you move the knife back and forth, rather than using downward pressure like you would with a chef’s knife. The serrated edge gives a bread knife some distinct advantages when it comes to cutting certain types of food – especially bread since it’s designed to slice right through crusty loaves without crushing the soft center. The wider the scallops are, the better it performs.
This MasterChef Classic Rivet bread knife is made from German steel with an ABS handle. The serrated edge of the blade is stone finished with provides a beautiful cut. The handle provides an enjoyable grip and ease of use. The blade is made with 18/10 Stainless Steel, allowing it to keep its sharpness for longer and can be sharpened at home.
