With this Eden Essentials bread knife you will smoothly slice any type of bread. Hard crusts, soft crusts, or bread rolls: not a problem when you are using this amazing knife. However, this doesn’t mean you can only use this knife when slicing bread. After all, this knife is perfect for cutting pies and cakes, but also hard fruits and vegetables. Take, for instance, the hard skin of pumpkins and melons. However, peeling or cutting a celeriac in half also won’t be a problem. Therefore, this knife can do much more than slice bread which is why we still prefer to call it a serrated knife.
Use
A bread knife has a long and serrated blade. Because of this long blade slicing bread is very easy. The serrations will make sure you won’t crush your bread because you have to use too much force. The blade can easily cut through hard crusts because the pressure of the blade is completely placed on the tips of the serration.
About the blade
The type of steel used for this blade is X50CrMoV15. It is a type of steel often used by renowned brands because it has great cutting qualities and is great against rust. The blade has been grinded down very thinly making the cutting resistance very low for a western knife. You can easily cut most ingredients in half.
Handle
The design of the handle is classic and ergonomically sound. The blade runs all the way through to the end of the full-tang handle. This classic German handle – which can be recognized by its handle fasteners – is made from pom. A sustainable, hard type of plastic.
Maintenance
Each knife should be sharpened in time. Fortunately this steel makes sharpening a piece of cake. Many people believe that sharpening a bread knife is impossible. This is, fortunately, not the case. At our 'How do you sharpen a bread knife'-page we explain how to sharpen your bread knife. Simply move it alongside a sharpening steel, or sharpening your knife with sharpening stones is something you can easily do yourself! In order to maintain your knife’s sharpness the blade should never touch other knives. For this reason we advise you to store your knives in a knife block. For the same reason you should never use cutting boards made from glass, porcelain, or stone. Always use wood or plastic.
The Eden Essentials kitchen knives are dishwasher-proof, but we advise you to wash them by hand to prevent anything from damaging the material. As a result you will be able to enjoy these amazing knives even longer. Of course, the world is not going to end if you place your knives in the dishwasher once. However, when you use your dishwasher more often the detergent can affect the steel and plastic leaving you with rust on your blade and dull handles.
