This bread knife sets new standards. The precision-forged, Performer 9" Double-Serrated Bread Knife features a second row of fine serrations on the cutting edge. It glides effortlessly through crusty loaves, soft dinner rolls, and more. Think: ripe tomatoes, big sourdoughs, and tender layer-cakes. Powerful. Efficient. No crushing, pulling, or tearing. With seamless slicing and impressive sharpness, this knife is the reliable companion for anyone who expects full control no matter the kitchen conditions.

Performer knives are enhanced with a deep-black Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) performance finish, which makes our blades uniquely strong and durable. This finish is heat-resistant, scratchproof, and resilient to damage. No matter the conditions, it sets new standards for frictionless slicing. The non-slip Hexagon-Power-Grip© design on the handles guarantees unmatched control with every cut. A full bolster (the forged thickening between the blade and the handle) further ensures perfect weight and balance.

For those who never compromise. WÜSTHOF Performer — the knife for the perfect cut.
