Know before you buy
Yes. The bow bread knife features a reversible blade design, making it fully functional and comfortable for both left-handed and right-handed cooks.
No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the high-carbon steel blade and the natural hardwood handle, we recommend hand washing and drying it immediately after use.
The scalloped edge is highly versatile. Beyond crusty sourdough and bagels, it performs exceptionally well on firm fruits, vegetables, and various types of cheeses.
The handle is finished with a chemical-free satin coating. To keep the wood in top condition, you may occasionally apply a food-safe mineral oil or wood wax to prevent the grain from drying out.
High-carbon steel is prized for its ability to hold a sharper edge for longer periods compared to standard stainless steel. Because of its composition, it is important to keep the blade clean and dry to prevent oxidation.
