Since you all are big time bread bakers and I didn't get much feedback on this on the baker's thread...do you have a favorite bread knife you could recommend? DH is frustrated with our old one, it keeps tearing his bread when he tries to slice with it.

I like this one. https://www.amazon.com/Update-International-KP-06-German-Steel/dp/B0037XH5T6 Mine is a bit different and has a wooden handle that's riveted on. I would also prefer a 12" over the 10" when using the slicing jig. I like bruce's slicing jig better than mine. This is mine https://www.amazon.com/Norpro-Bread-Slicer-Crumb-Catcher/dp/B00004UE6T

Sorry about that!

I have one that does not cost much and works well:

That's just like the one I have now I got it from my mom, so who knows how old it is.

Thanks Ron

I prefer a 12" knife too...I had a nice one at the golf course restaurant I really liked.

Just scanning through what Amazon has, they don't have a lot of variety of 12" ones. I might have to check webstaurant to see what they have.

Thanks Bob

I love my Wuhstoff bread knife! Dale gave it to me for Christmas several years ago...still super sharp!

What slicing jig does Bruce have? I don't like the one I have. Thanks!

Those do look nice, I just looked them up on Amazon. A bit out of my price range at the moment though. That would be a perfect Christmas gift though!

oops, I meant to reply to your Whustoff bread knife post.

You can sharpen serrated knives with the same steels used to sharpen a chain saw. I have sharpened mine that way

DH could do that, I'll suggest it to him. Maybe we can keep this one around for a while longer.

Good morning, chicks hatching! Trying to post a picture but it's slow again. Seems to be an issue a lot these days.

Good afternoon Cappy I missed out chicks hatching I'll live through everyone else's hatches.
Have a great day

Hatch day is fun!

Good afternoon Ron hope your having a great day
