## Description

With unparalleled performance, Millennia knives are designed with innovative features to meet the demands of today's professional chefs.

Review: Great knife for the price - I absolutely love this knife. I bought it because I was using the bread knife that come from the kitchen utensil set and they are terrible when it comes to cutting a good slice of sourdough bread. It's light, cuts through bread with ease; and has a blunted tip for safety and easy to use and clean with a quick rinse and wipe. It has a nice grip for the handle and a very nice sharp blade for ideal slice of bread. It's a great quality bread knife for a great price.
Review: Turns Bread into Neat Slices Instead of a Crumb Crime Scene - Really good knife for the price. I bought this expecting “decent for the money” and got “why is this cutting better than some of my fancy knives?” The wavy edge goes through crusty bread without crushing the inside into a sad pile of crumbs. Bagels, sourdough, soft sandwich bread—it doesn’t care. It just slices clean and moves on with its day. The handle is comfortable, grippy, and doesn’t feel like it’s going to launch itself across the kitchen mid-cut. It’s lightweight but solid, which is a nice balance when you’re doing a lot of slicing. No, it won’t impress your guests with a dramatic forged-in-a-mountain-of-fire story. But it will quietly and efficiently do its job every single time. For the price, this knife is an absolute workhorse.

## 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-

Great knife and VERY SHARP! The knife was very difficult to remove from packaging and I got sliced in the process. BE CAREFUL! It cuts bread very well with minimal effort. Highly recommended.
