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.
Looking After Your Blade
Keep your blade in top nick. Give it a rinse and dry after each use to stop corrosion. Every now and then, rub a thin coat of mineral oil along the blade. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a steady angle. Store it in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip — never chucked loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, give it a wipe after cutting acidic foods. For folding knives, clean out the pivot and pop a drop of lubricant in to keep it opening smoothly.
