“If you’ve only ever used an ordinary (in my case 60 year old, family heirloom) then coming to something that’s been properly designed and manufactured, is a revelation. Buying without trying was a leap of faith. This is the sort of money I would have bought a whole set of knives for. But I’ve never used anything like it. It’s so good.” 5 Star Review, Kitchen Knives Customer

Knife of the Year

How does it work? Instead of a single row of serrations along the cutting edge, the Precision Double-Serrated Bread Knife has a second, finer row of serrations within the original row of serrations. As soon as you start slicing, the core row of serrations confidently secures your ingredient while the finer, second row of serrations ensures precision and glide – less crushing, pulling, or tearing. You’ll notice the difference immediately! Minimal effort, minimal friction for clean, controlled cuts.

Conventional bread knives “saw” their way through breads and other foods. Or they put too much strain on your ingredients with a single row of dull, rounded serrations. In other words: these knives tear, crush, and pull instead of cut. This can mean inconsistent slices, crushed food, crumbling edges, and unnecessary effort.

The WÜSTHOF Precision Double-Serrated Bread Knife immediately makes an enormous difference. The innovative, double-serrated cutting edge ensures:

• Crusty loaves keep their shape — less tearing, less crushing.
• Tender baked goods such as brioche, croissants, or layer cakes are sliced gently and cleanly.
• Hard-skinned melons or pumpkins can be cut with ease.
• Large heads of lettuce, eggplants, and cabbages are prepped precisely and efficiently.

The result? Flawless cuts. Less effort. More fun in the kitchen.

This is what makes it WÜSTHOF’s Knife of the Year 2025.

The perfect knife for versatility

The double-serrated bread knife not only masters all types of bread and baked goods, but also cuts effortlessly through ripe tomatoes, large fruits, thick-skinned pumpkins, or big heads of lettuce and cabbage. Use it to slice layer cakes, cut flaky pastries, or break down a butternut squash. This knife is a true all-rounder.

Powerful yet gentle

With the double-serrated edge, you need less pressure and effort to create precise, clean cuts. This not only takes the strain off your hands, but also ensures increased control and consistent results.

Long-lasting sharpness

The precision double-serrated blade remains sharp for an exceptionally long time. This means less resharpening and more time for culinary enjoyment.
