Mercer Millennia 10-inch Wide Bread Knife, White and Black Handle

This is the Millennia 10-inch Wide Bread Knife with a two-tone white and black handle. The blade is the same: a long, tall, wavy-edged blade that crosses a sourdough boule in one stroke and cuts the crust without crushing the crumb.

The width keeps the knife tracking straight through a tall loaf and gives knuckle clearance. It also levels cake layers and slices melons and pineapples through the rind. The textured handle with finger guard keeps a secure grip.

    Care

    • Wash by hand after each use with warm water and a mild soap, then dry with a soft towel. Mercer advises against the dishwasher: heat can break down the handle, and caustic detergent can stain and pit the blade.
    • Do not leave the knife soaking. If chlorine or bleach touches the blade, rinse it off at once.
    • Avoid long contact with aluminum pans or a stainless steel sink, and do not leave the knife standing in condiments held in metal pans. Prolonged contact can cause pitting.
    • Do not run the serrated edge over a flat honing rod. Store the knife in a block, on a magnetic bar or in a knife guard.
