FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can a serrated bread knife be sharpened?
Yes, but it requires a special sharpening tool like a tapered rod designed to fit into the serrations. Due to the 60 HRC hardness, this knife will hold its edge for a very long time before sharpening is needed.

What is the advantage of a Damascus steel blade on a bread knife?
Damascus steel offers a fantastic combination of hardness and flexibility, which allows the long serrations to stay sharp through tough crusts while being resilient enough to resist chipping.

Is the sheath included for storage?
Yes, the knife comes with a protective sheath. This is crucial for protecting both the sharp serrations from damage and your hands when reaching into a drawer.

What can I use this knife for besides bread?
Absolutely! Its clean slicing action is perfect for foods with a tough exterior and soft interior, such as tomatoes, citrus fruits, layer cakes, and even roasted meats with a crispy skin.

Why is the handle octagonal?
The octagonal shape provides clear, tactile grip points that prevent your hand from slipping during the back-and-forth motion of slicing, offering enhanced safety and control.

How do I care for this knife?
Hand washing with mild soap and immediate drying is recommended to preserve the blade's finish and sharpness. Avoid the dishwasher, as it can dull the serrations and damage the handle.
