I bake bread and it

"I bake bread and it is important to have a great knife that will cut through the crust without smashing the bread. This knife cuts like butter."

Deborra (5/5)

It's a good knife, cuts

"It's a good knife, cuts bread just like any other bread knife. I like slight curve of the blade.The handle is small, less comfortable than average.I would rate it 4 stars, one star knocked for its price. You can get a better overall bread knife for half the price."
