SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Henckels Commercial 8" Bread Knife is a hardworking essential designed for fast-paced kitchens where performance and reliability matter. Whether you’re slicing through crusty loaves, delicate pastries, or sandwich rolls, this knife delivers clean, controlled cuts without crushing or tearing. Built for commercial kitchens but equally suited for home bakers and cooks, it offers the quality and durability that the Henckels name is known for.
The 8" blade is forged from high carbon, nitrogen-enriched stainless steel, a premium alloy chosen for its strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance. Engineered for extended use, the blade is heat treated, ground, polished, and ice-hardened to maintain its razor-sharp edge. The satin finish adds a clean, professional appearance while helping reduce drag for smoother, more efficient slicing.
The precision-honed, laser-controlled serrated edge is optimized for bread and other baked goods, gripping the crust and slicing clean through the interior without squashing soft or airy centers. It’s also excellent for foods with a tough exterior and soft interior, like tomatoes or citrus fruits. If you need consistent results with minimal effort, this knife delivers.
The full tang construction enhances the knife’s balance and structural integrity, offering confidence and control with every cut. The handle is made from black hygienic polymer, designed to resist liquid absorption and hold up under heavy daily use. Its ergonomic shape provides a secure, anti-slip grip, even when working with wet hands. A built-in finger guard adds safety during high-speed prep, reducing the risk of slips and fatigue during long hours on the line.
This knife is NSF certified, meeting strict foodservice safety and sanitation standards. It's also dishwasher safe for fast and easy cleanup, though hand washing is recommended to extend the life of the blade and handle. Made in Spain and debossed with the ZWILLING logo on the handle, the Henckels Commercial Bread Knife is a professional-grade tool that performs where it counts. Order it today from SMKW!
