Characteristics of the bread knife
The bread knife is characterized primarily by the shape of its blade. In fact, bread knives have a decidedly long blade that oscillates between 20 and 25 cm. The sharpening of the blade, on the other hand, is serrated. What can therefore vary is the total length of the blade and therefore of the kitchen knife, and the type of serration present on the knife. In fact, every kitchen knife company also produces its own serrations depending on the line. This can be with small and narrow teeth and therefore similar to a saw, or more tapered and soft reminiscent of waves.

Depending on the line chosen, the bread knife can be forged or non-forged. A forged knife is a kitchen knife made from a single piece of steel. In this way the kitchen knife, from the blade to the handle, is a single body without welding. This type of knives is more robust and balanced. Examples of forged bread knives are Gude knives or some Dick knife lines.
Functionality of the bread knife
Obviously the bread knife was born and is designed to cut bread, in particular it refers to the classic homemade bread, very large. The serrated blade in fact has the function of improving the grip on the bread which is cut more easily.

Although this is the main function for which people use this type of knife, many due to the similarity of the blade, also use this tool as a frozen knife. In reality, however, for the processing of frozen food, there are knives with specific blades for this reason we do not recommend using our bread knives, even as frozen food knives.
