This is a bread knife from Tsubame City, Niigata Prefecture. I've used it about twice, but I have another bread knife for the same purpose, so I'm selling this clean one. ◆Size (approx.) Height 4.5 x Thickness 1.5 x Overall Length 38.5cm Type Number A77028 Weight (approx.) 110g ◆Material Blade: Molybdenum vanadium stainless steel Handle: Natural wood (Japanese zelkova) Rivets: Stainless steel ~From the website~ This bread knife combines two types of blades, a wavy blade and a straight blade, to cut bread cleanly while minimizing crumbs. The wavy blade makes it easy to cut both hard French bread and soft bread that tends to collapse easily. The wavy blade is located at the tip and base of the blade, allowing for both push-cutting and pull-cutting. The blade uses special steel and achieves a superior sharpness. It has a mirror finish that reduces friction and improves sharpness while also looking beautiful. With a blade length of 23.5cm, it's convenient for various sizes of bread and whole cakes. Of course, you can cut bread, as well as various ingredients such as tomatoes and meat, with a clean cut. The handle is made of natural Japanese zelkova wood and fits comfortably in the hand. It's designed to be slightly higher than the blade, so your fingers won't hit the cutting board after cutting. This bread knife is carefully crafted by artisans in "Tsubame City," the city of metalworking.
