Calphalon Contemporary Cutlery 6-1/2-Inch Sandwich Knife

This knife is amazing!!! it replaces a bread knife, a paring knife, and a Chef's knife... because it can do everything!!! I work at Bed Bath and Beyond and we don't carry this knife at the moment but i have been doing my very best to make sure we do, a Calphalon rep. gave me one of these knifes to try out, and i haven't been able to put it down since... On a regular basis i refer people to Calphalon's Website to check this thing out, for anyone who is fed up with trying to sharpen your serrated bread knife look no further, as it has no serrated edge but still cuts through bread, and even if you were to allow it to get dull, due to the wavy pattern of the blade it still slices through tomato(even squishy tomatoes) with ease. I really can't say enough... best design of a knife i've seen, hands down... who knew a sandwich knife was the missing tool of my kitchen... also well weighted, and solid in the hand as with most other large Calphalon Contemporary knifes... To whoever takes the plunge and buys this unique knife, you will be happily surprised... and did i mention it also cuts through sandwiches really well( as to be expected i guess).... i'll say it one last time, because it really is that good, amazing Knife!!!

Yes, it is a stupid review title, but I honestly was at a loss so forgive my lack of creativity. This is a great knife. It is well made and solid, and definitely has a use. It is not, however, the all-purpose instrument that others have indicated. It is very sharp, and unlike most serrated knives you could re-hone the edge of this because the edge is wavy with large scallops. However, this is a blade designed to chew through bread crusts and maybe some onion. Soft sliced white bread and too-juicy tomato will tear or crush, and toppings will be pulled out from between slices of bread, no matter how careful you happen to be.

It is a great bagel knife, and a good choice if you like bakery breads with firm crusts. Knives are one of those kitchen tools I think should be pretty multidimensional and have multiple applications. This is not that kind of tool, and pretty single-purposed. It also fails at doing a major part of what it was supposed to do well. Great bread knife, bad sandwich knife (better review name!) It is nice enough that I am not sorry I bought it, but wouldn't buy it again.

[If the star system allowed, I'd give a 4 for quality/workmanship and a 2 for design/application. Man am I picky today.]

Update: June 2013. It rusts terribly. If you put it in the dish drainer to air dry it will rust.

Buy Calphalon Contemporary Cutlery 6-1/2-Inch Sandwich Knife Now

I've made a number of purchases in my quest for the ultimate sandwich knife, and this is the best. My last purchase was a zylis sandwich knife and it couldn't slice straight. This knife on the other hand, is a fantastic slicer not just for a sandwich knife, but compared to all knives. The tip profile works perfect for getting at the bottom of the mayo jar without scraping up the plastic, and it spreads very well. Works great as a bread knife too. No, it doesn't look like it'll be easy to sharpen if the time ever comes, but it performs excellent. Go ahead and buy it, you won't be disappointed with this one.
