## Questions & Answers

**Q: how wide is the widest part of 10-inch wide bread knife?**
A: The widest part is where blade and handle meet. As close as I can tell, it is 1 3/4 inches. The knife is very sharp. I have limited storage so I later purchased the Mercer Culinary 10" X 2" knife guard.

**Q: Why is the black handle wide wavy bread knife (m23210) $24.73  and the grey/white wide wavy bread knife (m23210gy) $17.00? a $7.73 difference!**
A: Wish I knew.  I couldn't figure that out either.  Same knife though as I have purchased a blue, a gray, and black.   I have given two as gifts.    All the same.

**Q: Is the bread knife sharpened on both sides. I am left handed, and the Victorinox one I use is on sharpened just for righties.**
A: Apparently they have a left and a right-handed knife.  I saw this link for left one. Mercer Culinary Millennia Black Handle, 10-Inch Left Handed Wavy Edge Wide, Bread Knife https://www.amazon.com/dp/B087CDHNZC/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_DW60S131JC4JPJTC4XAT?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

**Q: Is there a sheath available for this bread knife?**
A: This is the guard that we recommend with this knife-

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best bread knife ever!
*by M***_ on 30 April 2021*

The best bread knife ever, I loved it. It cuts off sourdough bread easily, which is hard to cut if you know what I mean;)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best bread knife!
*by J***E on 30 April 2026*

I make sourdough and got tired of struggling to cut it, saw a recommendation for this knife and decided to try it. It slices through the bread so easily, and even better than my electric knife! It's very sturdy and sharp! Absolutely worth every penny!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional value for the money. Works great with thick crusty bread.
*by A***A on 18 March 2026*

Exceptional value. Works much better than bread knives costing many times more than this. The grip is very secure and the edge does not skitter over top of very crusty bread. Cuts through cleanly and efficiently. Knife is not too thick and heavy or too thin. It really is the perfect bread knife and the best one I have ever tried. Very satisfied with it, to say the least. Highly recommended.
