A step above the standard bread knife, this 9-inch country bread knife is specifically designed for cutting through artisan, rustic and “country-style” loaves. The longer, slightly curved blade, featuring deeper serrations that stay sharper longer, is ideal for effortlessly slicing through crusty breads and soft-on-the-inside, hard-on-the-outside foods. This hardworking design prevents tearing, squishing and delivers better control with every cut.

Reviews & Questions
ZWILLING Four Star 23-cm_9.00-inch 9-inch, Country Bread Knife no-color is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 67.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great update to a classic I have loved the Zwilling Four Star line for quite a while. Im so glad they keep adding to it. This new bread knife is awesome. All the classic Four Star characteristics are still there. The comfortable handle leads to the German forged stainless steel blade. The blade is strong and sharp. The innovation comes at the blade edge. This new serration pattern allows only the longer teeth to touch the cutting board allowing for the blade to stay sharper longer. Its great for bread, tomatoes, citrus or anything else that has a tougher exterior and a softer inside.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Standard of Excellence I've had Zwilling FourStar knives for over 35 years. Always sharp, clean and sturdy. Lots of flashy knives have come and gone but these remain the standard of excellence since the day they were introduced. My new curved bread knife is perfectly balanced, useful in a wide variety of applications and a pleasure to hold. Very impressive.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A different bread knife This is a great bread knife. This is one of my go-to knives in the kitchen. The Z15 serration is so much better than other serrated bread knives I’ve used. With the uniqueness of the country bread blade shape being more curved than traditional bread knives, this does a beautiful job of cleanly slicing bread, fruit, meat without tearing or squishing. A lightweight knife, this premium forged and ice hardened steel will have lasting durability and sharpness.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cuts like a knife While my old trusty Zwilling Professional "S" breadknife was having trouble with the thick crusts on my sourdough boules, the Zwilling Country Bread Knife makes short work of it thanks to the Z15 serration. It cuts fingers too - so be careful what you point it at.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from The Perfect Curve This bread knife is perfect for those hard Italian or French crusts. The curved blade slices easily though even the largest and hardest crumb while gently going through the interior. Handle is comfortable so a good grip is easy.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from zwilling employee A nice bread knife wit an additional inch of length. The key to this knife is the new scalloped and pointed Z serration, its far better than the previous model.
