Cangshan Thomas Keller Collection 8″ Bread Knife

The refined Thomas Keller Signature Collection 8″ Bread Knife by Cangshan is a model of precision and craftsmanship. This stout, rigid design has an extremely durable points-out serrated edge that will easily slice crusty breads and tough-skinned vegetables and fruits for a lifetime of cooking.

This is one of the very few culinary lines that are made from advanced Damasteel RWL34 powdered steel, an advanced alloy that is only possible due to relatively recent advancements in powder metallurgy. It’s both extremely strong and durable and can be tempered to a very hard state without making it brittle or prone to chipping. Cangshan Cutlery uses this amazing alloy to its full potential in the Thomas Keller Collection.

Chef Keller was instrumental in the design, rigorously focusing on every detail to ensure it performed flawlessly. And his influence shows in the partial bolster design and fantastically seamless handle that lets you grip (and change grips) comfortably, however you choose. The knife is exceptionally well-balanced and every seam is flush, earning it an NSF certification for use in professional kitchens. Cangshan Cutlery is a Chinese Company and all manufacturing is done in their specialized factories in Yangjiang, China.

The knives are hand polished and hand sharpened by expert bladesmiths, and the overall quality of the build and finish is excellent. If you want a truly next-level upgrade to powdered steel, buy with confidence. The Cangshan Thomas Keller Collection 8″ Bread Knife is backed by the manufacturer’s lifetime limited warranty.
