Pure Komachi by Kai 8-Inch Stainless-Steel Bread Knife

Product Review

Komachi translates to "an expression representing a beautiful intelligent lady". The Komachi lineup of knives from KAI are high quality knives that express a relaxed and confident attitude. These knives are very sharp and are perfect to use in the kitchen, backyard patio, at beach parties or mountain cabin retreats. Keep a couple sets handy for spontaneous weekend outings or the next big tailgating party. Multicolored handles differentiate the Bread knife from the Fish knife, Meat knife and the Vegetable knife. Komachi will brighten up any setting. Show your fun side with Komachi.

Amazon.com Review

Measuring 8-1/4 inches, the long narrow blade of Komachi’s bread knife features a sharp, serrated edge ideal for cutting through everything from rustic artisan bread to moist banana bread. The knife is equally appropriate for dessert items, comfortably divvying birthday sheet cakes or thin slices of pear tart. The knife hides whimsical, bread-shaped cutouts beneath its handle.

This unique collection--by renowned blade manufacturer KAI in Seki City, Japan--offers practical kitchen cutlery in cheerful colors. Durable, high-carbon, stainless-steel blades featuring a fluorinated-resin coating offer hygienic food handling. The lightweight knife does not have a bolster but feels balanced thanks to the full tang. Clear, Ionomer-resin handles in coordinating hues are ergonomically designed and fit comfortably in hand. Made in Japan and measuring 13 by 1-1/2 by 3/4 inches overall, this bread knife is dishwasher-safe but hand washing is recommended. -- Amy Arnold
