Winco High Carbon Stainless Steel Bread Knife, 12 inch -- 1 each.

I needed a long, sharp bread knife for my Bread Pal Slicer, which is wide enough that an 8" or 10" bread knife just won't 'cut it', if you'll pardon the pun.

This knife, with it's 12" blade, is the perfect tool for the task.

Beware of one thing when shopping for 12" knives: A 12" knife is supposed to have a 12" blade. However, I've seen some [right here on Amazon] that claim to be a "12 inch knife"; but, in reality, are 12 inches in TOTAL LENGTH.

I highly recommend this knife.

In August of 1882, master German knifesmith Frederick Winwarre (pronounced VIN-varruh) came to this country with nothing but the clothes on his back and a small forge. His prize-winning breadknives were rumored to be so sharp that bakers banned them from their shops: if the proprietor were to turn his back, then in mere seconds a browsing customer could slice the morning's loaves into cubes, tuck them into a pocket, and abscond with tens of dollars worth of choice breadcrumbs. Renamed "Winware" (pronounced the way it looks; Freddy had a gift for marketing), the knives were a hit, and prices ballooned. Shortly after William Henry Vanderbilt II commissioned a 43-foot Winware breadknife forged from solid gold, the speculative bubble finally burst. Some say that WHV II was never the same after he suffered the resulting financial loss. Regardless, the intrinsic quality of Winwarre's product ensured that his business survived the ensuing century, albeit never recovering its former glory.

The Winware 12" Bread Knife Stain Free High Carbon Steel lives up to its name and its reputation. I have poured literally gallons of ink upon the blade, with nary a stain. My own analysis of the carbon content in the steel blade was carried out in a home laboratory without proper equipment, but I can confirm that the carbon content is indeed high. The length is also precisely 12" -a traditional length, suitable for cutting the long hot-dog buns intended for foot-long Frankfurters. While I have only cut several hundred loaves of bread since my purchase last week, performance has been strong. I will think fondly of Frederick Winwarre and the American Dream as I slice bread in the years to come.

Finally, I can now slice my homemade bread without getting frustrated. I use one of those wooden slicing guides and my shorter knife was constantly slipping out of the guide slots. No such problem with this baby. It allows me to make long slicing strokes that feel natural and comfortable. The blade is a full 12" and the total length is 17 1/2".
