Bread Knife

$129.00

Designed specifically for bread and created in collaboration with Master Knifemaker Jordan LaMothe, the Brod & Taylor Bread Knife is purpose-built for the final step. Hand-finished serrations cut cleanly through thick, crispy crust all the way to the bottom without tearing the crumb, while balanced weight keeps every slice even — so the bread you worked hard to make gets the finish it deserves.

Designed for bread
Every detail is created around the way bread behaves, not adapted from a general-purpose kitchen knife

Cuts cleanly through crust
Hand-finished serrations grip the crust and move through the crumb with less tearing or dragging, all the way through the bottom crust

Balanced for even, uniform slices
Thoughtful weight does the work, so each pass stays steady and every slice comes out even

Stabilized maple wood handle
Each handle is unique, crafted from water-resistant maple chosen for durability, comfort, and character that develops over years of use

Every cut starts with the design. Blade geometry, serration placement, curvature, balance—nothing was accidental. The result is a knife engineered around the way bread is actually cut.
