Mercer Culinary M23011 Millennia Slicer with Granton Edge, 11-Inch , Black

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!

So surprised at the quality of this very cheap knife.Arrived promptly. Grippy handle. Super duper sharp. Easy to use. A great chef’s knife that won’t break the bank.

Really great (and very very sharp) knife to use for slicing bread or meats. Good heavyweight handle too, so makes it a pleasure to hold. Doesn't come with its own knife guard though, so you need to buy that separately to ensure you don't cut yourself if you keep the knife in your cutlery drawer.

Good quality, length, sharp and easy to Sharpen comfortable slicing knife used mostly on prosciutto and roast beef, far from being an expert but probably the best value for money I could have found.I like to keep it shape by honing on leather strop.

I am so impressed honestly, I decided to spend a bit more and I'm so glad I did. Never had a bread knife I have to be as careful with as I would be with my freshly sharpened Japanese steel flat bladed knives. I use it to cut crusts off brown bread and have halved the amount of waste bread created, I've also knicked my finger nails near every time as I'm getting used to it.The grip is excellent but I wouldn't suggest this if you have mobility issues that cause hand shaking unless you're sure as I have hypermobility and have to be so careful as a result. Not saying abled bodied people don't have accidents with knives but I felt it bare mentioning as this knife is actually amazingly sharp and beautifully thin, both of which increase the risk for people with a whole host of mobility issues. On the other side of the coin, I have to use so much less force, next to none actually so that could actually be a plus mobility issue wise at it's a very solid, grippy, well balanced and slender long knife.Overall I couldn't be happier.

Excellent so far, this knife made short work of a large sourdough loaf and the wide blade is especially useful. It’s very sharp but also stable with a good grip.Highly recommended, great value too,

Fabulous knife for bread cutting. Stays sharp & can cope with most tall loaves (we cut bread by laying it sideways!), good price, well made. Suggest hand wash as per instructions to maintain sharpness.

This is a great bread knife and slices through my sourdough with ease. This is the 3rd one purchased for myself and also purchased 1 for my friend.
