Description of J.A. Henckels Twin Cuisine 8-Inch Bread Knife

With the wealth of freshly-baked artisan breads available these days, a bread knife with a serrated edge is a necessity. The Twin Cuisine 8-inch serrated bread knife cuts thin, uniform slices from even the crustiest bread, and slices equally smoothly through tomatoes, avocadoes, and other foods that have a tougher exterior than interior. While not recommended for cutting meat and fish (slices won't turn out evenly), the serrated bread knife is surprisingly versatile and makes an excellent gift for anyone who loves to bake their own bread or buy uncut loaves. --Ann Bieri

From the Manufacturer

Twin Cuisine is the first quality forged knife to combine the comfort of a truly ergonomic, molded handle with the precision weight and balance of a full horizontal tang. Plus, the Twin Cuisine's exclusive, award-winning patented handle design is a new standard in fine cutlery (U.S. design patent #D524,121). The series is available in many styles for numerous cutting tasks. Twin Cuisine is also available in a variety of block sets and gift sets. The Twin Cuisine series truly is a masterful blend of form and function.

A Higher Standard in Knife Construction

Twin Cuisine knives are traditionally forged from a single piece of J.A. Henckels's exclusive high carbon, no-stain steel formula. The result is a knife with high durability, professional strength, and weight. Twin Cuisine also uses J.A. Henckels's Friodur ice-hardening process, which results in a blade that has excellent cutting-edge retention and corrosion resistance. The blade edge is precision honed and laser controlled to maintain a sharper and consistent blade angle.

New Ergonomic Handle Technology

The Twin Cuisine handle features exclusive new and innovative handle technology: a full horizontal tang without rivets. High-impact polypropylene is bonded with J.A. Henckels's high-carbon, no-stain steel, resulting in a remarkably comfortable handle with a smooth shape and no gaps. The world-famous Zwilling J.A. Henckels logo is etched on the end of every Twin Cuisine knife handle, indicating its quality.
