Know before you buy
No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the quality of the wooden handle and the sharpness of the blade, we recommend hand washing and drying it immediately after use.
The micro-serrated edge is specifically designed to grip and slice through crusty bread, bagels, and rolls without tearing the soft interior. It provides a clean, controlled cut that standard flat-edged spreading knives cannot achieve.
Yes, the wide, rounded tip is shaped like a spatula, making it ideal for scooping spreads, butter, or jam. It is particularly useful for reaching into the bottom corners of deep jars.
Both handle materials are durable, high-quality woods sourced in France. The primary difference is aesthetic: the beech wood offers a classic, natural grain, while the tangerine hornbeam provides a vibrant, modern pop of color to your table setting.
While it excels at bread and spreading, the 6-inch serrated blade is also quite capable of slicing through soft cheeses and deli meats. However, it is not intended for heavy-duty tasks like carving large roasts or cutting through bone.
