Cangshan Thomas Keller Collection Bread Knife

Damasteel RWL34 is a high-end powdered steel known for its exceptional hardness and edge retention. This means the serrations stay sharp significantly longer than standard stainless steel, allowing you to slice through tough crusts without tearing the soft interior of the bread.

The partial bolster is designed to encourage a 'pinch grip,' where your thumb and index finger rest on the blade itself. This design provides better control and comfort during repetitive slicing tasks while making it easier to sharpen the entire length of the blade.

No, this knife is not dishwasher safe. To protect the integrity of the high-performance steel and the handle finish, you should always hand wash the blade with mild soap and dry it immediately after use.

Yes, the serrated edge is highly effective for any food with a tough exterior and soft interior. It works exceptionally well for slicing thick-skinned produce like pineapples, melons, or tomatoes without crushing them.

NSF certification indicates that the knife meets rigorous standards for public health protection and professional kitchen safety. It ensures the materials are non-toxic, easy to clean, and durable enough to withstand the demands of a commercial environment.

The knife comes with a signature walnut storage box, which is the ideal way to protect the serrated edge from dulling against other utensils. If you prefer to use a knife block or magnetic strip, ensure the blade is kept away from other metal objects to prevent chipping.
