Love at First Slice

This is exactly the knife I was long searching for but didn’t know existed until recently. I’m excited about offering it here. It was really more like love at first sight when I spotted this gorgeous knife at a housewares trade show in Chicago. Given its great look, feel and quality construction, I was amazed that I could price it as low as it is. It’s a perfect balance of performance, aesthetics and value.

Scanpan’s Danish designed cutlery is crafted from the finest grade fully forged German stainless steel. Each blade is expertly ground, honed and tested. The angle must be exact, uniform from bolster to tip and the curve flawlessly tapered. The blade is Rockwell® tested* to ensure that it's tempered and hardened to perfection. It effortlessly slices through crusty artisan loaves. The slightly curved cutting edge is especially effective at cutting through the often tough bottom crust.

This perfectly weighted and balanced bread knife has a stylish ergonomic handle to enhance comfort and safety. It’s a pleasure to use.

*Rockwell® Testing

The Rockwell® hardness test was invented by a metallurgist, Stanley P. Rockwell, to determine if the heat treatment process he was performing on bearing races was successful. Today, this simple sequence of test force application is employed internationally as a standard measure of steel hardening. The minute dot impressed into the blade of each Scanpan knife blade is your guarantee that the fully forged surgical stainless blank used in its construction has been professionally tempered and hardened to perfection.

Note: If you’re contemplating this knife as a gift, it comes in nice looking box.
