Hammer Stahl Bread Knife

The scalloped, serrated edge is designed to grip the crust of the bread, allowing the blade to saw through without requiring downward pressure. This prevents the soft interior of the loaf from being crushed or torn during slicing.

While optimized for bread, the serrated edge is also effective for slicing delicate items with tough skins, such as tomatoes, or for carving citrus fruits without losing their juices.

Forged steel provides superior durability, balance, and edge retention compared to stamped blades. It ensures the knife feels substantial in your hand and maintains its sharpness through repeated use.

Yes, serrated blades require a specialized sharpening rod or tool designed to fit into the scallops. Standard flat sharpening stones will not effectively sharpen the serrated edge.

We recommend hand washing the knife with mild soap and drying it immediately to prevent corrosion. Avoid putting it in the dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can dull the edge and damage the handle.
