Designed for pull-cuts, bread knives have long rigid blades which produce a straight controlled slice with minimal back-and-forth motion. Teeth ground into the edge keep the knife from skating across the surface, while sharp valleys between the teeth slice through your food. Although they’re called bread knives, scallop edged slicing knives perfect for slicing through any food that has a tough exterior, like a pineapple. They are also a great option for cutting delicate roasts of meat like Turkey or corned beef.
