In the picture the Grind is very elongated approximately 3/4″, this was the selling point for me… It looked so sharp and flexible. My ideal bread knife.
The reality is, The grind is not elongated like that… it’s a short stubby 1/4″. Meaning it does not have the same cutting edge property as I was expecting.
I was looking forward to have this knife as I started It make my own bread.
Edited: I found a good bread knife testing video with this knife in it. It was funny to watch it in action. It’s legit… Look it up on YouTube…. [Equipment Review: Best serated (bread) knife Testing]
This video also help me choose a good bread knife. I’ve return the China Cutlery… “Sorry little typo there” I meant Chicago. I sent it back for a refund.

I got these to replace the scissors that came in my Chicago Cutlery block. I haven’t used the little tools on the handle, but the scissors are great and fit my block perfectly.

Bought these because they are exactly the same as the scissors in out knife set. Our set is going on 7 years old now and the plastic handles have cracked and broken in a few places. I’m happy with 7 years of use. We still use the originals, just put them in a drawer because they’re not as nice looking anymore.

I think these are great knives. I originally found the smaller one in a thrift store, and after sharpening it I was impressed with it. So, I decided to buy this set. I really like that they come with blade covers– makes them great to take camping.

I love that they have a bottle opener at the top. Also the blade cover is super nice. I can throw them in my silverware draw and not worry about cutting myself pulling them out.

A no-frills but excelent working tool. I used these knives as a meat cutter in a packing plant decades ago and they still do the job w/o the price for ones with pretty handles!

Was a replacement for one I had for quite a few years. Same size just lighter

The actual blade of this bread knife is great. My somewhat-budget knife block came with a bread knife, but it was in the style of very wide serrations, which often doesn’t perform well on hard-crusted bread. I ordered this Chicago bread knife after reading mostly good reviews, but also some that criticized its handle.
With the knife I received, I have to agree with the criticisms of the handle. It is not very good at all. I immediately sanded down the hard corners and smoothed the whole handle with finer grit paper, but this can’t address the sloppy spacing between the wood and steel. I can’t be bothered to rip the wood off and redo it, because it is alright for now. Although I know that without meticulously cleaning this knife and avoiding any contact of water to wood, the handle will inevitably get worse and separate even more due to the moisture.
This knife is kind of hard to review. You can buy much sturdier knives that will hold together better for the same price, but will likely have worse steel and dull faster. It basically comes down to what you value more: care-free maintenance or better steel with some work involved. Although, while I believe sanding down a knife handle with some sandpaper is a possibility to everyone, removing a handle, prepping, and pinning in a new one isn’t. Consider this when purchasing this bread knife. If you’re a bit handy and get a (maybe) bad-luck knife like I did, you can get it sorted out with just a bit of work, and still end up with a decent blade steel.
