The long, serrated blade effortlessly cuts through crust and crumb without crushing or tearing, ensuring clean, even slices, regardless of the bread's consistency.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe blade is made of 67 layers of Damascus steel with a 10Cr15CoMoV core – a high-carbon stainless steel alloy (approx. 1.05%) with added cobalt, molybdenum, and vanadium. This composition gives the steel a hardness of approx. 62 HRC and ensures that the knife retains its sharpness over time – even with frequent use. The selected alloying elements strengthen both the stability of the blade and the knife's resistance to rust and wear.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe handle is made from FSC-certified Pakka wood, which consists of layered, pressure-impregnated wood from responsibly managed forests.
