## Description

With unparalleled performance, Millennia knives are designed with innovative features to meet the demands of today's professional chefs.

Review: Great value. A dedicated bread knife is pretty much essential for regular use. - My wife is on a sourdough kick (awesome). She bakes a couple loaves on the weekend. For months we've been cutting them with somewhat dull standard kitchen knives. This was an inconvenience for me (slow and awkward) and a little dangerous for my kids. We purchased this knife a couple months ago but I wish we had purchased it from the get-go. It's light, cuts like a dream, and has a blunted tip for safety and ease of use. Cleans with a quick rinse and wipe. The handle has a satisfying grip and the angle of the blade is ideal. Steady cuts and uniform slices are easily done. We're only two months into use but the quality seems like everything you could ask of a $16 knife.
Review: Great knife for the price - I absolutely love this knife. I bought it because I was using the bread knife that come from the kitchen utensil set and they are terrible when it comes to cutting a good slice of sourdough bread. It's light, cuts through bread with ease; and has a blunted tip for safety and easy to use and clean with a quick rinse and wipe. It has a nice grip for the handle and a very nice sharp blade for ideal slice of bread. It's a great quality bread knife for a great price.

M23210 Bread Knife First off, Amazon accumulates reviews for all of Mercer's knives into one rating (which they do with many other items as well). So, how do customers know which knife gets which review? Yes, it got best of class from many sources and yes, in my first use it outperforms my current restaurant grade knife that I have sharpened several times, but it is not perfect out of the package. When examining the edge with a flashlight, 'grey line' can be seen on some of the tips and the sides of the gullets. Gray line means a flat surface that reflects light. A perfect edge has no flat spots and produces no grey line/reflection. Big Deal? It is to me. But to be honest, it's not uncommon for other knives, chisels and such. While this knife is not comparatively expensive (it is an above average restaurant grade knife with an NFS certification on the blade), I expected a clean edge from tip to heal. Why? Because serrated knives are a pain in the rump to sharpen. It's more than running a round file through the gullets; that's easy. But each of the tips must the sharpened with a micro file because they come from the factory slightly rounded (as does this knife), and they round over even more from cutting. That's why bread knives can dull quickly. They do not cut with the valley of the gullet but with the few tips of the serration. No matter how sharp the valleys are, it's the tips that do the work. Unless you are experienced and have the tools, sharpening a serrated edge is unrealistic. Taking it in for sharpening (if you can find such a service) might cost 1/2 the original cost of this knife. So, your best protection is to use the knife correctly and safely: - Hold it correctly. Wrap your thumb and first finger firmly against the contour of the handle near the heal of the blade to arrest movement. This knife has an excellent contour and soft, textured grip. - Use the correct handing. This knife is a right-hand knife with the flat side of the knife on the inside of the loaf and the beveled side on the slice side of the cut. Mercer makes a left-hand model as well. They otherwise will not cut well. - Use the correct posture. Address the counter with your left foot extended and come as close the cutting surface as is possible. Grasp the loaf with your left hand well away from the cut line and exert firm, appropriate, downward pressure. Keep your elbows tight to your sides. The idea is to minimize lateral movement. - Cut from the shoulder. The cutting motion does not begin with the hand, wrist or arm but at the shoulder. Keep the knife, your hand and your arm in alignment as you make the cutting motion. Your arm should rub against your right side. - Position the bread correctly. Because of your posture, the bread should be slightly rotated to the left, say 15 degrees. - Start the cut with one or more backstrokes until the cut line is established and then cut on the forward stroke. Do not cut with a back/forth rapid gesture. Cut on the forward stroke with a purposeful manner using the appropriate force for the kind of loaf you are cutting. - Roll the loaf. When you near the end of the cut and before contacting the cutting surface, roll the bread on its side, if safely possible, and complete the cut with less resistance (especially on thick crusted bottoms). Even wooden and plastic surfaces will wear down the edge far, far more than will bread. - Keep the blade clean. Carefully wipe the blade with a damp towel if moist crumb accumulates causing drag on the blade. - Wash and store correctly. Clean the blade with water and diluted liquid detergent as needed. Rinse and dry carefully. Then store the blade in a block or divided compartment. Otherwise, buy and use a blade guard made for bread knives. One more thing ... this is a bread knife, not a general slicer. The more you use it on a cutting board, the sooner it will dull. If your slicing knife will not cut tomatoes or onions, get it sharpened. This is an above average knife. I look forward to a long and happy marriage with just the occasional strife of sharpening. And, this knife has a limited lifetime warranty. 5 Stars. May the crust be with you.
