How to Sharpen a Double Serrated Bread Knife

Double-serrated blades have fine serrations on both sides, so they should be sharpened with a tapered ceramic or diamond sharpening rod that matches the serration size. Sharpen each scallop individually on the beveled side with light strokes, working tip to heel. The double-serration design cuts more cleanly and stays sharp far longer than single-serrated edges, so sharpening is infrequent. Wüsthof recommends professional sharpening for serrated edges when in doubt.

Bread Knife Sharpening Tips

Use a ceramic rod sized to the serration gullets
Sharpen only the beveled face of each scallop
Do not sharpen the flat side or the spine
Hone gently if the edge feels dull between sharpenings

Best bread knife I've owned

Slices through crusty sourdough like it's nothing. The double serration really does make a difference, no more crushing soft sandwich bread. The white handle matches my other Classic White knives perfectly. Worth every penny even before the discount.

Glides through crust

No sawing, no crushed loaves. Excellent knife.

Great slicer, learning curve

The double serrated edge cuts crusty baguettes beautifully with almost no crumbs. It took me a few loaves to find the right angle since it cuts more aggressively than my old single-serration knife. Also fantastic on tomatoes and my son's birthday cake layers. Only reason it's not five stars is that the 9-inch blade is a touch short for extra-large boules.

Tomatoes and crusty bread, done

I'm 68 and have gone through plenty of bread knives over the decades, most of them junk. This is the first one that slices a ripe tomato without mangling it and goes through a German rye crust without effort. The forged steel feels substantial in the hand, like knives used to be made. My wife immediately claimed it for her sourdough so I may need a second one.

Good but pricey at list

It's a very good bread knife, clean cuts and the white handle is easy to keep clean. But I'd hesitate to pay the full $150. At the sale price it's an easy recommendation, at list I'd shop around.

Serrations tore my brioche

Maybe this is meant for crusty artisan loaves only, but on soft breads the double serration grabbed and tore instead of slicing clean. It works acceptably on sourdough. For a knife this expensive I expected it to handle everything, so it's going back.
