Zwilling Pro Bread Knife

The Z15 serration features a unique scalloped design that allows the blade to glide through tough crusts without tearing the soft interior of the bread. This specific geometry also helps the edge maintain its sharpness significantly longer than traditional serrated blades.

Yes, the serrated edge is highly effective for items with tough skins and soft interiors, such as tomatoes, sausages, and citrus fruits. It provides a clean cut without crushing delicate ingredients.

The curved bolster is designed to encourage a professional pinch grip, which provides better control and balance while cutting. It also helps prevent your fingers from slipping toward the blade, making the knife safer and more comfortable to use for extended periods.

While the knife is technically dishwasher safe, we strongly recommend hand washing it. Dishwasher detergents and high heat can dull the blade over time and potentially damage the handle material, so hand washing is the best way to preserve the knife's performance.

FRIODUR ice-hardening is a specialized process that cools the steel to sub-zero temperatures to improve its molecular structure. This results in a blade that is exceptionally corrosion-resistant, flexible, and capable of holding a sharp edge for much longer than standard stainless steel.
