Very nice knife December 29, 2006 This knife has had consistent performance when cutting breads and cakes. I've had the knife for almost a year and it cuts as well now as it did when I bought it. I've also bought one for my mother-in-law and she is in love with this knife as well. It's definitely been money well spent.
Excellent bread knife November 30, 2006 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have had this knife for over two years and routinely use it to slice bread and to chop hard chocolate. Although some of the points of the serrations have dulled (probably due more to the chocolate than the bread), the knife still slices through a hard baguette (or even a tomato) with ease.
The JA Henckels International branded knives are less expensive and feel less substantial than the more expensive Twin/4 Star/5 Star etc. series, but this bread knife gets the job done. I have top-of-the-line Shun chef's and santoku knives which I love, but I would never consider 'upgrading' to a top-of-the-line bread knife because I can't imagine it performing any better than this one.
Three strikes and it was gone June 8, 2006 This knife gave a performance roughly equal to what I paid for it. Bread knives aren't really precision cutting tools, they basically need to be able to get a good grip on a hard surface and not make too many crumbs. On both these counts this knife was not successful. The blade is rather thick and as a result converts a lot of whatever it cuts to crumbs. More importantly, the serrations did not stay sharp and had a tendency to slip. After three people, myself included, got cut as a result of the knife slipping on hard bread or a bagel that was the end. I replaced the knife with a Suisin bread knife, which, while more expensive and a little hard to find, is far better as a bread knife.
Best knife ever, worth $50, costs 10 March 1, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had this knife for years, use it for everything and couldn't be happier. I thought it would dull easily or wear down, after all it's only $10, but I was wrong. Simply fantastic for cutting bread, but also useful for vegetables and other tasks. The only thing it doesn't cut well is meat.
Beware not true Henckels October 26, 2005 18 out of 20 found this review helpful
People are confused about Henckels.....JA Henckels (the good one) and Henckels Internationl (crap) ARE NOT THE SAME THING! JA Henckels is top quality and made of high carbon steel and very pricy, but the Henckels Internationl like this knife is just stamped cheap steel like any other generic cheap knife. Just though I would let you know...thats why there is such a big price difference.
