Mercer Culinary Millennia Level A4 Cut Glove, 18 Ga, X-Large, Blue 10-Inch Wide Wavy Edge Bread Knife White M23210WBH

I came across this knife via a review by American Test Kitchen on U-Tube. It is a fantastic knife which has made my life keenly more interesting, cutting home made brad that is. It works very well on soft tomatoes as well. I feel it will work for years to come/

Excellent beginner chopper for my daughter who is learning to cook and finds our best knives heavy and a bit intimidating.

This knife cuts bread well, but differently from other knives I've had. It's not like sharp sharp - I can't cut through a sheet of paper, and I'm not scared of it cutting my finger. If I run my finger on the blade it doesn't feel that sharp. I think it's the design, the scallops of the teeth that give it it's power. The first stroke it kind of skids a little unlike a knife with pointy serrations. But, wait for the second stroke, and it slices the loaf like butter. There are hardly any crumbs produced. I can cut a super thin slice with this thing. I love the 10" - the knife is always in contact with the bread. I was initially going to buy a more expensive Japanese bread knife but the reviews on this one were so good (and price) that I thought why not. And now I realize, all I need is this Mercer Millennia.

皮引き用に買ってみたら良かった。

The utility knife is as sharp and attractive (mauve handle) as the chef’s knives.

This is the best bread knife I’ve ever used, so sharp. Be careful with this knife and make sure it’s covered when not in use, I kept the packaging to put it in.
