5.0 out of 5 stars A great bread knife and slicer for the money.
Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2023

Bought this after seeing a review of bread knives on an episode of America's Test Kitchen. This was not their most expensive knife tested, but it aced all of their tests. My bread knife was over 40 years old, and so the idea of retiring it was ok with me. I had gotten my money's worth. I figured if I didn't like this Mercer knife, then I could always go back to using my old one. That wasn't the case. I found this to be better than an undoubtably more expensive Henckels bread knife, and I probably don't need to worry about whether it will last 40 years. :-) I bake artisan sourdough breads at home with very well-developed crusts, and this knife does a better job of slicing through it. I've used it for carving roasts as well, and it works at least as well as the old Henckels slicer I have. I'm not trying to bash Henckels knives, which it may seem that I am. I am just comparing the performance of this knife to ones from a well-known and well-regarded knife manufacturer.

For the price, a terrific knife. The only thing that I had any issue with was finding a slot in my knife block that was both wide and long enough to accommodate the blade. I had to do some reorganization to make it work. You may want to give a bit of thought to where you are going to store it.

I'm a self-proclaimed bread enthusiast, baking homemade crusty loaves multiple times a week like it's nobody's business. But let's face it, slicing through those babies with my dull old bread knife was like trying to cut through a brick wall – until I met the Mercer Culinary Bread Knife. With its wavy edge and effortless slicing power, it's become my trusty sidekick in the kitchen.

What makes the Mercer Culinary Bread Knife stand out is its wide wavy edge. It's like a serrated superhero, effortlessly gliding through even the crustiest of breads without squishing or tearing. No more struggling to maintain perfect slices or ending up with jagged edges – this knife delivers smooth, even cuts every time, leaving me feeling like a master baker in my own kitchen.

Using the Mercer Culinary Bread Knife is a dream. Its ergonomic handle and balanced design make it comfortable to hold and maneuver, while its razor-sharp blade makes quick work of even the toughest crusts. Plus, its sleek black handle adds a touch of style to my kitchen arsenal, making me feel like a culinary pro with every slice.

Since adding the Mercer Culinary Bread Knife to my kitchen collection, my bread-baking adventures have reached new heights. No more wrestling with dull knives or resorting to uneven slices – this knife has become my secret weapon for achieving bakery-quality results at home.

In summary, if you're a fellow bread lover looking to up your slicing game, look no further than the Mercer Culinary Bread Knife. With its wavy edge and effortless slicing power, it's sure to become your go-to tool for all your crusty bread needs.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cuts bread like butter, but you have to steer it for a vertical cut
Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2024
Verified Purchase
This bread knife works very well, with an effortless, smooth cut that creates very few crumbs.
But because the blade is completely flat on the left side as you hold it by the handle, with the serrations beveled only on the right side, a cut that starts vertical tries to curve towards the left as it progresses downwards. The blade wants to twist clockwise and undercut the piece to the left of the knife. Your first cut with this knife will probably create a wedge of bread rather than a vertical slice. Once you learn to apply a slight counterclockwise twisting pressure, you can easily keep the cut vertical. But it does require the user to know that and to pay attention.
The blade is both too wide and too long to fit in the knife block we already have. The length is good for cutting a large boule of crusty bread, but we have to find another place to store it.
This is still a great improvement over sawing and squashing fresh loaves with our dull and short old bread knife.

Huge fan of the wave blade. Doesn't make a mess of crumbs like the saw style bread knife, makes the surface of a bagel or toast much nicer.

I have purchased many bread knives over the years, always trying hard not to spend a fortune on any particular knife, sadly this has proved to be a false economy though, if I'd known what I know now, I would have just saved up and bought a far better knife the first time, hindsight can be a wonderful thing!
What I can say about this purchase is that, thus far, I am very impressed!
Yes, it's certainly not the cheapest, but saying that, it's also far from being too expensive.
I have used it to cut very fresh, artisan bread and it has coped very well.
Applying very little pressure and sawing away, sliced the bread evenly and as thinly as I wanted, without destroying the loaf!
I like the extra length to the blade than all previous bread knives I've used.
It feels well balanced too and obviously, nice and sharp.
Even though this is strictly a bread knife, I actually tried it to carve a roasted joint of beef and it sliced that nice and thinly, an excellent result!
Some other reviews have mentioned not liking the texture of the handle, but I don't have any issues with that at all.
I pop mine in the dishwasher and it appears to be holding up well.
I would say, considering the price paid for this bread knife, it is well worth buying, I am very impressed!
Hopefully it will last, only time will tell, but certainly the best value bread knife I have ever bought and I've had quite a few!

I bought one of these Bread knives for work. After I used it (mostly slicing acidic fruits), I had to buy another one for my home. It is very sharp, it is beautiful to work with. Not only for bread, but for everything, which you like to slice. From roast, to vegetables. Not a chefs knife, but definitely one of the most versatile knives around.
