9-Inch Offset Bread Knife - Scallop Serrated Blade - High Carbon German Steel - Ergonomic Quad-Tang Pakkawood Handle

Great knife. Company offers quality blades and steel! Super sharp! Sliced my thumb to the bone on the 1st cut! Definitely quality and USA MADE!

I've purchased a number of the Hammer Stahl knives over the years and have never been disappointed with the quality. I usually wait and get them on sale. Each one comes in its own box if you want to gift them to someone. This particular bread slicer I've had to wait awhile for and it was well worth the wait. I wanted this one (they have other styles) for the offset handle. I've had other name brand ones and although they too were sharp this was another level of sharp. The offset handle means you have clearance for you knuckles when slicing Great heft and balance. Terrific knife!

Beautiful, sharp, balanced bread knife. I like that it is heavy and feels substantial in the hand. ...and cuts bread perfectly.

Beautifully made, very sharp, works well. My one complaint is that the little rivets that hold the attractive wooden handle on protrude slightly and are quite sharp! They really should have recessed these better

Well made and easy to handle! Slices bread (and meats) easily. The handle itself is amazing! No roughed up knuckles while slicing AND makes cutting so much easier. I plan to buy more knives from Hammer Stahl in the very near future! Hmmmm. Maybe a carving knife!?!

This is the best bread knife out of 5 that we have owned in the past, right size, right weight and cuts perfectly. Highly recommend this very good looking and great working knife.

I am absolutely in love with this knife. I would not say that it is lightweight, and that’s a good thing. That was one of the factors that helped in my decision making process for buying it. I wanted a very high quality knife (my opinion, I am not a professional chef), with a very comfortable weight, not too heavy, not light and flimsy. The blade is SHARP and cuts like butter. Are there higher end knives out there? Yes, but, these are not cheap by any means. It’s the most expensive knife I have ever bought. I felt I deserved it because I love to cook and I do it all the time. We like to do our amateur gourmet foods, I am in my 60’s and I felt I deserved it and I only have one regret. Why didn’t I do this a LONG time ago?

The blade didn't have sharp points to "grip" the item such as a tomato. Instead the "points" were rounded so it slips slightly. Also, the "scalloped edge" was not concave as I experienced w another brand. Possibly because of the above or user error, the blade seems to slip/cut to my right rather than straight down. FWIW, when holding the knife, the scalloped edge is to the left and the other (totally flat) side of the blade is to my right. The knife is beautiful w a lovely handle totally unique and different from your basic black. It's a full tang and hefty. Possibly a little too hefty, or at least that's the initial impression when holding it the first time. I suppose that's good to cut through things. Nice packaging and nested nicely in dense foam (?). Sadly, it is being returned as it would have been a nice addition.
