Henckels CLASSIC 7-inch Bread Knife

I was raised with good German steel in the kitchen, and Henckels was a byword for quality. It feels like they may have broadened out in to more cheap faddish products in recent years, but their core sets remain the same lovely high quality knives I've always known. I don't fool myself that this particular blade is an ultra-high-end chef's knife (would need to add a 0 to the price for that), but I am not an ultra-high-end chef. I am a normal, everyday user, and this knife is outstanding for everyday users like me. The grip is well balanced, the blade it sharp, it goes through bread effortlessly, and the slight upward curve towards the tip allows for a more natural cutting stroke. I'll keep this knife around for a long time. Pros: - High quality manufacture - Well balanced and sharp - Shaped for the task - Cuts cleanly, with no crushing or tearing Cons: - It comes in a cheap plastic packaging (meant for shop display, not storage) and doesn't have a sheath, making it a menace to fingers in drawers for those without a spare slot in their knife block. Summary: - An excellent bread knife - you won't find better for the price.

A sturdy grip with excellent balance! To be used 95% of the time on non-gluten home-baked products. It smoothly separated slice from loaf. It replaces a made in china monstrosity that is wobbley abd relatively useless compared to this Henckels tool! The reviews mattered and doing some homework brought up a winning baking tool.

Excellent knife. Works great. Very comfortable.

I love this bread knife. It even cuts the crustiest bread very easily. I would definitely recommend it.

Pricey but worth the price.

Pretty much just a good ole bread knife nothing to special here its good quality on par with J.A. Henckels standards it hasnt seemed to dell much ut its been lightly used I dont use much. Looks wise its pretty plain and basic it does have a sharp look about it though. I like the knife and its good quality I would recommend it to anyone looking for a decent quality knife for a decent price nothing too fancy just functional.

This knife is solid and works on any type of loaf from soft to dense breads. I haven’t had any issues thinly slicing my homemade breads, which since I’m new at bread baking, are all over the map density wise.

Love the manageable size of this 7 inch knife as well as sharpness in cutting (not mangling) my bread. Works great on any type of loaf I bake!

I’am very happy with my new bread knife 7 inch blade and work excellent to cut up on breads and bagels. It wroth money to buy it. It is good company from Henckels. Thank You ! E.M.

All of my knives are two man Henckel so I was a bit nervous about this but it's amazing! So glad I bought it.

Cuts easily through really hard crusted bread well. Great value for the price.

Good quality

everything is fine
