Description

The Wusthof Classic bread knife features a precision-forged 23cm high-carbon stainless steel blade with a scalloped serrated edge designed to slice through the crustiest artisan sourdough without crushing the crumb. Full bolster and triple-riveted POM handle provide balance and control, while Wusthof’s Precision Edge Technology ensures each serration is laser-tested for consistency.

The Sunday Loaf
The scalloped edge grips the crackling sourdough crust and glides through without pressure — each slice reveals a perfect cross-section of open crumb, uniform in thickness and uncompressed by the cut. From crusty baguettes to soft brioche, the Wusthof bread knife turns the simple act of slicing bread into a moment of quiet satisfaction in your morning routine.
Seven Generations of Solingen Steel
Wusthof has been forging blades in Solingen, Germany since 1814 — seven generations of accumulated mastery in a single knife. Each Classic bread knife begins as a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel, precision-forged and tempered to 58 HRC. The scalloped serrations are individually ground using Precision Edge Technology, a laser-controlled process that ensures every tooth cuts identically.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
