I bought one of these bread knives in May, 2008, from Amazon, for twelve ninety nine. For that price, it is a great bread knife. I bake my own bread, and the knife gets a lot of use. It was extremely sharp when I first got it and it remains extremely sharp to this day. (I sliced a finger pretty bad with it shortly after I first got it because I wasn’t as careful as I should’ve been when slicing a loaf of bread, and that was partly because I didn’t realize just how sharp – almost razor sharp – the knife was. Since then I always take extra care when handling and using it.) I must wonder why, today (June 20, 2010), it is selling for twenty three bucks on Amazon. Today, following a link from the Chicago Cutlery website that leads to the World Kitchen website, I see that this exact knife is listed with a selling price of fourteen ninety nine.
I love it and expect it should last a lifetime (I consider the polymer handle a plus in terms of both longevity and hygiene), I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good quality super sharp bread knife for non-commercial use, but Amazon’s current price is way too high. Caveat emptor.

I like the long length, the lightness and the effective cutting from this knife. I use it on everything especially pineapples.

This knife is a good value (used to be an even better value). I use it mainly on bread and tomatoes, it works very well. Feels comfortable to grip and has stayed sharp for a couple of years now.

I bought this knife for my girlfriend for Christmas. I gave it to her early as we were getting ready for our annual Christmas party and she needed a better knife to use. She said it was a GREAT knife and it worked fantastic on freshly baked bread. A+

I needed a bread knife and saw this one while purchasing another item. Seeing it was from Chicago Cutlery I decided to purchase it. It is quickly becoming my favorite knife. Great for bakery goods. Slices tomatoes with ease.
