Lakeland Fully Forged Stainless Steel Bread Knife 22cm Blade 5 "Heritage in the steel" Mr Graham 16 May 2018 This bread knife can trace its lineage back to the Battle of Hastings. The Bayeux Tapestry shows the earliest iteration as a double handled battle sword, wielded by Anglo-Saxon soldiers fighting the French. A fearsome weapon in battle, it was nevertheless found wanting when it came to thinly slicing a freshly baked sourdough loaf. Blacksmiths through the ages honed and tempered the design, resulting in the present day version seen here. A weighty but well balanced blade featuring the traditional scalloped edge, it fears neither crust nor malted grain. Buy it with confidence.
Lakeland Fully Forged Stainless Steel Bread Knife 22cm Blade 5 "Very pleased" Mrs Mary Crowe 17 April 2018 I bought my last bread knife about thirty years ago. It was meant to last 25 years so did well but the replacement was well overdue. This one is noticeably heavier but I don't find that a problem and it cuts new bread, still warm, really well....as long as you don't get tempted to press down on the loaf as you cut! A note from the team Thank you for placing your review. I'm delighted this knife works so well for you.
Lakeland Fully Forged Stainless Steel Bread Knife 22cm Blade 5 "Wowww!" Janet 13 April 2018 This is a very good knife, heavy but well-balanced. Cuts bread, cake, etc., no problem. Very sharp, as my fingers can testify! I actually bought several different knives from the same range at the same time, and realised that my old set of knives, which I always thought were fine, were actually ancient & blunt! I would recommend this range to anyone.
