Product Description

The edge of the Messermeister San Moritz Elite 9-inch Bread Knife is scalloped with a gentle camber. What makes this Knife a left-handed Knife is that the scallops are placed on the front side of the blade instead of the back side. The Bread Knife is a wider and longer bladed version of a tomato Knife. The scalloped edge is ideal for biting into the crust of bread, allowing a smooth slicing action without exerting pressure that can compress the slice. It is also used to slice through soft-skinned fruits and vegetables. We don't recommend cutting meat.

This review is from: Messermeister San Moritz Elite 9-Inch Bread Knife (Kitchen)

This is probably the best brea knife ever at this price. the only better knives I have tried are the Shun Classic and Shun Elite bread knives both have the same design as this one but are thinner and sharper but at %50 to %100 more money. when it comes to handles the messermeister have the best handles HANDS DOWN nothing feels as good in your hands as a messermeister

Bought this knife to continue my collection of the San Moritz knives, and I have to say it's an amazing tool. The knife is mildly heavy, however it is well balanced and feels good in the hand. The heft also increases the the knives' ability to easily and quickly slice through anything that's thrown at it. Overall a great knife, well worth the price.
