Dalstrong Serrated Bread Knife - 10 inch - Gladiator Series Elite - Forged High-Carbon German Steel - G10 Handle Kitchen Knife - Sheath Included - Razor Sharp Slicer - Slicing Knife - NSF Certified

It felt like a bit of a risk buying this (being an unknown brand), but after using it for now used it for several weeks cutting various artisan breads I can say that I absolutely love this bread knife. It has handled every thing we've thrown at it with ease. Hearty bread with hard crusts, crisp crusts with delicate bread - it has cut through them all with ease. Nice clean cuts, and doesn't squish the bread. Just cuts cleanly like it should. The knife looks great too.I've got a few pretty nice knives made by the big name brands, and this easily holds its own with the best. Just go ahead and buy this now. Seriously.Any knife I buy in the future will be from these guys. My only regret about this purchase is that I now wish that that more of my kitchen knives were made by these guys. Surely there's some reason I need another...

If it wasn't for Amazon reviewers I would never have found this knife, so thank you! This knife is the one on the right in the picture with 2 knives.We have been making our own bread and I have always struggled to cut bread straight or not mangle it. Even when cooled I can't seem to cut it. We had a bread knife from a $200 knife set from Costco. My husband spent $30-40 on the other knife in the photo. This knife was amazing. I wasn't expecting such a MASSIVE difference in knife performance.I took a closeup of some slices and put a spoon next to the slices so you could see now thin we have now been able to cut the bread. Even I can cut bread now and not mangle it. We both cut a few pieces and could NOT believe the difference.Thank you Amazon and the whole community on here! I can now cut my loaves of boule and they are nice and thin and a super clean cut!

The knife arrived in 4 days via standard UPS. The knife is as beautiful as the images indicate. It is very well balanced and its construction is what one would demand of a proper high quality knife. I use bread knives to slice more than just bread and this one does what is asked of it effortlessly. It cleans easily, but be careful or you will find a part of your fingers in the sink. The included hard plastic sheath is in the shape of the knife blade itself, is very light weight and does not add ungainly bulk when the knife is fully sheathed nor does it upset the knifes balance. When sheathing the knife you will note a little click to get the knife fully seated into the sheath. This is the mark of quality and correct design that ensures the knife is secure and will not fall out of the sheath even if dropped (I tested it for this) meaning it won’t work its way free in the drawer and cut you when you reach in for something else. I recommend this knife to anyone who wants high quality at a very reasonable price.

This knife is awesome in looks and performance. The bread knife cuts like a razor. I used it for the first time to cut a Hungarian raisin/walnut loaf and the design of the bread after being cut was intact and sharply delineated from the crust to the center of the bread. The knife comes beautifully packaged with a well-detailed booklet on use and care (something you no longer get with many products). I appreciate the fact that this company cares about its customer long after the purchase of their product as evidenced by their guarantee and pride in what they are selling. I like the heavy duty sheath in which to store the knife as it is razor sharp and this is a good safety feature. Thank you for providing such a wonderful product and backing it up with your caring. I look forward to using this knife for many, many years to come. I will also share it by giving it as s gift (which I have already accomplished once by giving one to my son for a gift). Thank you and your company for such a fine product. You have my rating of a 5 star and more!

Dalstrong demonstrate their style and skill with this 10 inch Bread Knife. Differing from their Shogun Series, High Carbon German Steel is selected for the Gladiator Series, including this bread knife. This wide scallop serrated blade is honed on one edge enabling ease of cut and sharpening. The generous ten inch blade permits slicing through hard or soft bread, or tomatoes or roasts. Dalstrong secures this full-tang blade with three rivets to a polished Pakkawood Handle. I recommend this well-made knife, but for those users, like myself who expect the best, it is well worth spending more for Dalstrong’s Shogun 10.25 inch Bread Knife.

First let me say that I have NOT received any discounts, products, etc. in exchange for a favorable rating. Also, I am not a professional chef so what I write is for us home cooks.I bake and I needed a good bread knife. I did my research and settled on this DALSTRONG Gladiator Series knife. When I received it I was impressed with the weight and balance-very comfortable. The knife fit my hand like it was custom made for me. When I baked my bread this morning I finally had a chance to use it. I made 2 artisan style loaves-nice crisp chewy crust-this knife just glided through it. It took very little effort to get slices of bread from ultra thin to very thick. This knife is EVERYTHING that I was looking for. My sister is an amazing chef and I insisted that she try this knife. She too liked the feel and was pleased with the way that it cut the bread. She said that this was a very good fit for me.I give this knife 5 stars because it exceeded my needs in every way. DALSTRONG even emailed me to make sure that I received the knife and if I had any questions. Outstanding customer service.Would I recommend this knife to anyone? Without hesitation. Would I purchase from them again? I am looking for a new chefs knife...think I will go with DALSTRONG.One of the best purchases I have made at Amazon.
