Stalgast Sanelli Bread Knife 31.5 cm

A bread knife slices crusty loaves without crushing the crumb. The long serrated blade runs through the crust in a single sawing motion, keeping each slice intact. The teeth grip the surface while the edge cuts, so the operator does not need to press down; this reduces waste and keeps the loaf from tearing.

The operator holds the handle in one hand and the loaf in the other, drawing the blade steadily from heel to tip. The serrations do the work, so the motion stays smooth and controlled. Once the cut is complete, the knife lifts away cleanly, leaving a flat face on the loaf and a neat slice ready for serving.

The blade is 31.5 cm long, ground from high-carbon stainless steel and hardened to 54-56 HRC for lasting sharpness. The handle combines two plastics: a firm core for strength and a softer outer layer for grip. The shape is symmetrical, fitting either hand comfortably.

The length of the blade allows a single pass through large loaves and baguettes, while the hardness of the steel keeps the serrations sharp through repeated use. The dual-plastic handle reduces hand fatigue during long service.

Clean the blade by hand in warm water with mild detergent, then dry immediately to prevent corrosion. The handle can be wiped with a damp cloth and sanitised with kitchen-safe disinfectant.
