Properties of a Bread Knife
It’s not like a bread knife is a specialty knife – we all know (roughly) what it looks like and what it’s used for. But let’s have a closer look at the properties of the construction of the knife, specifically its blade.
- Length: The blade is normally between seven and ten inches long. The longer the blade, the more versatile the knife – that is, you can use it for a variety of different types of bread of varying sizes.
- Width: The width can vary, but it’s normally about an inch wide. A bread knife blade tends to be fairly thick.
- Edge: The one thing most people know about bread knives is that their edges are serrated, and this is for good reason. A serrated bread knife allows the knife to grip onto the crust of the bread and slice through it easily. It also stops the entire loaf from being crushed which is a possibility if the blade isn’t serrated.
- Material: Both the blade and the handle of a bread knife can be made from a variety of materials depending on your personal preference, the way in which you plan on using the knife, and your aesthetic taste The most common material for the blade of a bread knife is stainless steel, mostly because it’s fairly strong but most of all, it’s durable and resistant to corrosion. Carbon steel and high-carbon steel are also used – they’re significantly stronger than stainless steel – but not as commonly.
Your choice of material for the handle of a bread knife has more to do with aesthetics – it can be made from wood, plastic, metal, or composite materials. As long as it’s comfortable for you to hold.
