Miyabi Bread Knife

This knife features wide, low-profile serrations specifically engineered to glide through crusty exteriors without tearing or crushing the soft interior of your bread. It is designed to minimize crumbs and maintain the structural integrity of delicate loaves.

No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. The high-performance steel and natural wood handle require hand washing and immediate drying to prevent corrosion and damage to the blade's edge or the handle's finish.

This specific steel allows for an incredibly sharp edge with superior retention, meaning you will need to sharpen it far less frequently than standard stainless steel knives. With a hardness of 66 HRC, it offers exceptional performance for precise, effortless slicing.

The D-shaped handle is ergonomically designed for a secure grip, but it is traditionally optimized for right-handed users. If you are left-handed, you may find the handle shape less intuitive compared to a symmetrical or ambidextrous handle.

While the Damascus pattern is visually striking, the layering process also contributes to the blade's overall durability and strength. It is a hallmark of the CRYODUR ice-hardening process, which stabilizes the steel for long-term resilience.

Yes, the serrated edge is excellent for any food with a tough exterior and soft interior, such as tomatoes, citrus, or even delicate cakes. However, it is primarily optimized for bread, so avoid using it on frozen foods or bones to protect the edge.
