Made In 9-Inch Forged Olive Wood Bread Knife

The Made In 9-Inch Bread Knife is designed to handle the contrasting textures of artisan baking, from the shatter-prone crust of a sourdough boule to the delicate crumb of a brioche. Forged in Thiers, France, from a single rod of high-carbon stainless steel, the 9-inch blade provides the length needed for clean, full strokes through large loaves.

The serrated edge features a scalloped profile that reduces friction and crumbing, allowing the blade to bite through hard crusts without excessive downward pressure that could compress the interior. The result is cleaner slices with less tearing and better preservation of texture.

The handle is crafted from French olive wood, offering a warm, ergonomic grip and a dense grain with natural moisture resistance. To ensure long-term performance, the blade is nitrogen-treated to maintain its edge through repeated use. With full-tang construction and a 58+ Rockwell hardness, the knife delivers balanced handling and the structural stability needed for consistent slicing through dense, multi-grain loaves.
