Our verdict

A stamped serrated bread knife that saws through crusty loaves with a light handle. The listing says little beyond materials, and care steps are not given.

Overview

Wüsthof builds this Gourmet bread knife with a stamped high carbon stainless steel blade and a serrated edge. A black polypropylene handle completes the knife.

A serrated blade that grips a hard crust is the reason to look at a bread knife like this, and the light weight is easy to work with. The limitation is the missing detail: no care instructions, no warranty and no handle shape are stated.

Who it's for

Home bakers and cooks who cut baguettes, boules and sandwich loaves several times a week. The long blade clears a wide loaf in one stroke. Cooks who need a forged knife or a plain edge for tomatoes and meat should pick a different tool.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Serrated edge grips crusts
  • Long blade clears wide loaves
  • High carbon stainless steel
  • Light in the hand
Cons
  • Stamped, not forged
  • Care instructions not listed
  • Polypropylene handle, plastic feel
  • Warranty not listed

Performance notes

The serrations bite into a hard crust and cut with a sawing motion, so the soft crumb inside is not crushed. Stamped steel makes the knife light, and the blade length lets one pass go through a large loaf.
