Best Bread Knife 10 Inch Serrated - Razor Sharp Rust Resistant Japanese VG10 Steel Knife

The Art of Making a Knife Sharp: Choil, Spine, and Edge Curve

The sharpness of a knife goes beyond just the edge. The choil, or blade taper, plays a crucial role in effortless slicing. Similar to walking on a gradual incline versus a steep slope, the choil design makes the blade edge more efficient at cutting through food. Additionally, a thinner overall knife spine, at 1.8 mm compared to the industry standard of 2-2.5 mm, further enhances the cutting performance by reducing the amount of blade material that needs to push through the food.

Equally important is the curve of the blade. Just as samurai swords are curved, the right blade curve allows for smoother and more effortless cutting. The tip of our blade is designed to easily "bite" into whatever you're cutting, providing a seamless slicing experience.

Innovations That Set Our Knives Apart

Our knives are crafted with VG10 Japanese "Super Steel," a high-performance stainless steel with a unique chemical composition that allows it to achieve a higher Rockwell hardness without increasing the risk of chipping. This Japanese steel is not only strong and hard but also rust-resistant and easy to sharpen.

To further enhance the knife's performance, we employ a vacuum heat treatment process to achieve an even higher Rockwell hardness, which translates to better edge retention and longer-lasting sharpness. This process also increases the knife's rust resistance, preventing corrosion even when the steel is at its most vulnerable state.

The blades are then meticulously polished, using a combination of mirror and electro-polishing, as well as citric acid treatment, to create a smooth, glossy finish. This not only improves the knife's rust resistance by minimizing crevices where corrosion can accumulate but also makes the blades easier to clean.

Exceptional Knife Balance and Control

A well-balanced knife can significantly reduce the effort required for cutting. Our Foxel knives are carefully weighted during production, with the balance point positioned just before the bolster. This design puts the knife completely under the user's control, allowing for precise and effortless slicing.
