Description

We designed the handle ourselves after years of sharpening in the workshop: octagonal, like a Japanese handle. Plasteriet in Trondheim casts it by hand to our design, from collected plastic, one at a time. The colour will be as in the picture, but the marbling is your own. In the workshop we fit the handle to the blade and adjust it.

About the knife type: Bread knife

A bread knife is made for cutting through bread without squashing it or spoiling the texture. Unlike other knives, it has a long, serrated blade that cuts through the crust without pressing the bread down.

You usually use a bread knife with a sawing movement, which makes it easy to get even slices without squashing or crumbling the bread. The serrated edge also cuts through brittle crusts without damaging the softer crumb.

A bread knife is useful for more than bread. You can use it to cut delicate fruit and vegetables with thin skins or soft textures, such as tomatoes or ripe fruit.

About the steel: SLD

A semi-stainless tool steel from Hitachi, originally designed for cutting other steels. It combines the sharpness of carbon steel with the easy care of stainless steel. Needs some maintenance to prevent corrosion.

Care: needs a little attention

Care and maintenance

Wash by hand in warm water, and dry it straight away.

Never the dishwasher. Use a cutting board of wood or plastic, not glass or stone.
