Review: I just moved into a new home and am replacing the essentials that my old roommate used to own. Obviously, for anyone who cooks at home, you need a few decent knives. Now, my background and current job is working in bars/restaurants. I work on the bar side of things, but have definitely been around commercial kitchens where cooks come in with their daily-driver types of knives. Sure, you have high end restaurants / chefs who own and use $300+ knives (cost per knife), but for most people working in kitchens, they're looking for affordable, good quality knives they can use daily. This knife seems to fit that bill. Granted, it's a serrated bread knife, so it has limited uses. Personally, at home, I'm never slicing bread. All the bread I purchase comes pre-sliced unless you're talking about kaiser rolls or sub style buns. But, my primary use for a bread knife at home is slicing fragile fruits and vegetables like tomatoes and citrus, and cutting sandwiches in half. At my bar we've been using the same restaurant supply store brand serrated knife to prep our bar fruit for 5 years. It was probably a $10 knife at the very most. It still works well, and it has definitely seen a ton of use. Never sharpened once. So, for myself at home, I wanted to buy a good quality bread knife that wouldn't break the bank. I didn't want to go cheap like $10, but didn't want to spend over $50 either. I saw this on desertcart and it fit the bill and had good reviews, so I ordered it. I really love how this knife feels. Great weight balance, and feels quality. It came out of the box super sharp, and I've had a chance to test drive it on slicing tomatoes for sandwiches, and it's super accurate. You can go paper thin if you wanted, and it won't "warble" and start going sideways like some poor quality serrated knives can do. I then made a sandwich and cut it in half. It cut through all of the meat, veggies, and bread like butter. Seriously, like two passes and the sandwich was perfectly cut with nothing dangling and hanging on, it was like a laser cut. I did a bit of research after buying this knife, and saw some reviews out there saying Babish knives will lose their edge fast. That's fine by me, that will happen to any knife, that's why there are wetstones and sharpeners out there, so that's not a,n issue for me. Also, I want to note that I didn't know who Babish was before buying this knife, so I'm not purchasing this as a fanboy or anything. I bought it purely on the price, design and reviews. The reality is, is that you can buy a whole knife set with a wood block for about $50-$80. So, spending $24 on just one knife might seem dumb. But, for 99.9% of home cooking you only need a few knives. A good santoku, a bread knife, and arguably some decent steak knives (depending if you serve your steak pre-cut or not). Those entire knife sets come with about 8 knives you'll probably never need to use, and trying to save a few bucks by buying the whole set will compromise the quality of all the knives. All that being said, I'm happy with my purchase. I also bought the santoku knife this brand offers. Again, I don't mind sharpening knives. I've done it A LOT. If, for whatever reason, these knives can't hold an edge for like a week of general use over time (like some other reviews online say), I'll probably come back here an update my review. But, I just don't see it happening based on the quality of materials used and my week's worth of use on it so far. Are there better knives out there? Of course. Do you really need them as a home cook? Probably not. If you're on a budget and just want a few good knives, I would recommend this brand for sure.
Review: I like the 8 inch length. It fits my home made bread just fine, but it isn't very sharp, so it doesn't cut real fast and easy.

Well balanced and sharp! I liked, so I sent one to friends whom I regularly give bread to. So far so good! The price was right.. 20-23$ at time believe a bit more now. I’ve had mine for a year I’d say and still nice and sharp. I cut sourdough bread with it everyday!
