Gourmet Bread Knife 23 cm

Wüsthof Gourmet Bread Knife with 23 cm blade

A classic amongst the range of knives that belong in every kitchen: as well as bread, this knife is suitable for use on hard-skinned vegetables and fruit, as well as for roasts, especially those with crackling. The concave (inwardly curved), serrated edge of the knife works like the teeth of a saw, but is much finer, so no pressure is required to cut any sort of bread and even a hard crust will allow a clean cut.

The small blunt section at the tip of the blade is designed for extra crusty loaves. As you slice down to the bottom of the loaf, simply lift the handle up and use the blunt tip to slice through the hard bottom crust.

With a wonderful price-to-performance ratio, non-forged Gourmet knives carve a special place in the Wüsthof repertoire when it comes to their intuitive and lightweight handling.
