Customer Review: Nice
Summary: 5 Stars
I have used stamped, serrated knives for bread duty for some time. I really didn't think that anything else was needed. Most of my sandwich bread, as well as all of my ethnic bread is made here at home, so it pretty much gets sliced on the fly.When I bought this knife, I was impressed by the way that the extra heft of the forged blade cut through crust without complaint. I also bought a plastic "bread keeper" (which works very well), and it included a plastic slicing guide. I noticed that the Calphalon bread knife was able to produce consistant, thin sandwich slices with less effort than the lighter stamped knives. The slices are also smooth and straight, and are made with less crumbs. You can live without this knife, but it does the job just a little bit better, and it looks and feels wonderful.
Description of Calphalon Traditional 8-Inch Bread Knife
Fully forged from a single piece of German high-carbon stainless steel, this 8-inch knife with its straight edge and deep serrations ("scallops" in knife-speak) is ideal for slicing crusty loaves of bread, with the serrations' points easily penetrating the hardest crusts. A bolster provides balance and safety, and additional balance and strength come from the full tang running through the handle, which is formed of hygienic, fiberglass-reinforced poly that won't crack, split, or chip and is attached to the tang with the traditional three rivets. The high-carbon stainless-steel blade takes and holds a fine edge and it won't rust, stain, or discolor. A quality knife like this should be hand washed. It carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred BrackBread & Serrated Knives
