Michael Aram White Orchid Bread Knife

Yes, the serrated edge is specifically designed to grip and saw through tough, crusty exteriors without crushing the soft interior of artisan loaves.

This knife is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the finish of the nickel-plated handle and the sharpness of the blade, hand wash it with mild soap and dry it immediately with a soft cloth.

The hollow grind creates a thinner, sharper edge that reduces friction as you slice, allowing for cleaner, more precise cuts through bread and delicate baked goods.

The handle features the signature White Orchid design, which provides a unique, sculptural aesthetic. While it is balanced for functionality, the decorative nature of the handle means it will feel different in the hand compared to a standard ergonomic rubberized grip.

While optimized for bread, the serrated edge is also excellent for slicing through items with tough skins and soft interiors, such as tomatoes or citrus fruits.
