What do Trier, Wiesbaden, Münster and Lüneburg have in common? Apart from historic city centres, famous landmarks and a long standing tradition as important trade cities, they share another important aspect: These cities are the homes of excellent steelware retailers, who have built their outstanding reputation over many years by means of their extensive selection and expertise.

Boker has harnessed their decades of experience and finely honed sense for the requirements of cooking and kitchen enthusiasts in the product development of the Boker Core series, combined with our almost 150 years of experience as a Solingen Knife Manufactory. The result is a premium product with dynamic lines, excellent handling and breathtaking cutting capability.

This item is the Boker Core 20cm Bread Knife. The Boker Core series offers an exclusive mix of premium materials, solid natural wood and brushed stainless steel. The range features single knives - 20cm Chef's Knife, 20cm Bread Knife, 16 cm Small Chef's Knife and 9cm Paring Knife, Santoku, Carving Fork- and beautiful 3-, 5- and 6-Piece Walnut Block Sets. 

The knives' solid blade slugs are made from a chromium molybdenum vanadium alloy (X50CrMoV15), perfectly suited for premium kitchen knives, and are hand forged with Solingen craftsmanship, structurally optimised and hardened to 58 HRC. In order to give the blade a longer service life and even finer cut, our traditional hand grind is then highly polished.

The forged bolster ensures a secure and protective grip. The Bread Knife is characterised by the special serration, as well as the very long blade. In addition to bread, other hard foods can also be cut very well. In contrast to the classic Kitchen Knife these are not crushed when cutting with the Bread Knife. The beautifully patterned and perfectly proportioned walnut handles round out the cohesive and appealing look. A superb knife for a lifetime of culinary art, with a Lifetime Guarantee on materials and workmanship. 

Please note - as a natural material, there may be shade and pattern variations in the timber handles and block. Each one is unique. Care of wooden items- Do not place in dishwasher. Hand wash and dry promptly, and keep oiled with a food grade oil or board cream.
