From Friedr. Herder Abr. Sohn, one of the oldest knife manufacturers in Solingen, Germany, known as the city of blades, comes a bread knife with a warm wooden handle. With a forged stainless steel blade and a smooth, rounded handle... this knife is easy to use with a surprisingly gentle grip for a European-made knife. The back (spine) of the blade is also thick, and this sense of weight is unique to German knives. The blade still features the spade mark that was trademarked in 1727, giving it a slightly antique feel, and making it a knife that evokes the old Europe. - Manufacturer: Friedr. Herder Abr.
