OXO Good Grips Professional 8-Inch Bread Knife

This knife feels good in the hand. It does a great job on bread. As a bonus, in this season (late Sept.) of wonderful, ripe tomatoes, it does a great job of clean cutting even soft tomatoes.

I had originally tried a higher-rated (from a leading cooking magazine) bread knife by Forschner. R H. Forschner by Victorinox 10-1/4-Inch Curved Blade Bread Knife, Black Fibrox Handle The problem with that knife was that it is too large to be comfortable to use with a smaller hand, and it won't fit most knife racks except in the one slot reserved for your big chef's knife.

Undeterred by the reviewer who complained that this knife doesn't work for bread, I ordered it. Not only is it a proficient bread knife, the fact that it is honed on only one side and has a substantial grip gives you real wrist control over how your slice is going. I make all my own bread and have been looking for a knife that would slice it without tearing up some of the more delicate loaves. This is it, and at a great price!

Oxo Good Grips Professional 8-Inch Bread Knife

This knife is made of good quality steel and has a good grip and feel as well. However, the way it slices bread is totally unacceptable. I bake my own bread, both rye and wheat bread, and I have yet to produce a decent slice with this knife that did not come out as a wedge. In other words the knife pulls to the left (a lot, not just a little) while cutting. The blade has a very nice serrated edge on one side and on the other side it is smooth. Someone told me that is the reason for it cutting in that manner, however the manufacturer's customer service people say it's made like this on purpose. It cuts o.k. through vegetables, but I bought it for bread, and it is called a "Bread Knife".

Awesome quality as with most OXO products. I use this for cutting all sorts of things not just bread such as tomatoes, meats, etc I find the serrated edge makes the cutting much easier for many items. This is my main "goto" knife when cooking.
