Victorinox Bread Knives

An offset bread knife raises the handle above the blade so the knuckles clear the board at the end of each cut. Our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide explains serrated shapes, and the full range is in our Victorinox bread knives category.

Keeping the Edge

Serrated and wavy edges are not maintained on a honing steel. The points of the serrations carry the cut, so the knife keeps its bite for a long time; when it finally dulls, have it sharpened on equipment made for serrations.

Care

• Hand wash only. Wash with warm, soapy water and dry at once; do not soak the wood handle or put it in a dishwasher.
• Cut on wood or soft composite boards rather than glass, stone or ceramic.
• Store in a block, on a magnetic strip or in a sleeve such as the Victorinox Knife Safe for 8-inch to 10-inch Knives, not loose in a drawer.
