Robert Welch Signature 22cm Bread Knife – Effortless Slicing with Precision Control
Designed in consultation with professional chefs, the Robert Welch Signature 22cm Bread Knife is a high-performance kitchen essential created for clean, effortless slicing of bread and baked goods. Part of the multi-award-winning Signature range, this bread knife combines expert British design with premium materials and precision engineering to deliver consistently excellent results.
The blade is fully forged from high-quality German DIN 1.4116 stainless steel, a steel selected for its strength, durability and resistance to corrosion. Fully forged from a single piece of steel and finished with a full tang, the blade extends through the handle to provide superior balance and stability. This robust construction ensures long-lasting performance and a reassuringly solid feel in the hand.
A defining feature of this knife is its scalloped, serrated blade edge, which is hand applied at a precise 15° angle. The carefully designed scallops grip the crust of bread while slicing cleanly through soft interiors, preventing crushing or tearing. This makes the knife ideal for cutting everything from crusty artisan loaves and baguettes to soft sandwich bread, brioche and pastries. The serrated edge also performs well on foods with tough skins and soft centres, such as tomatoes and cakes.
The 22cm blade length provides excellent reach and control, allowing for long, smooth slicing strokes with minimal effort. This length is particularly effective for larger loaves and tall bread, helping to achieve even slices and a professional finish. Whether preparing breakfast, sandwiches or serving bread at the table, this knife delivers reliable, consistent results.
Comfort and usability are central to the Signature design. The tactile handle is ergonomically shaped to sit naturally in the hand, promoting comfort, balance and control during use. Its carefully considered form helps to minimise hand fatigue, even when slicing multiple loaves. The handle’s smooth, hygienic finish makes it easy to clean and suitable for everyday kitchen environments.
Designed to fit seamlessly into modern kitchens, all Robert Welch Signature knives are dishwasher safe, offering convenient cleaning without compromising performance or appearance. Each knife is gift boxed, making it an excellent choice for weddings, housewarmings, birthdays or anyone who appreciates high-quality kitchen tools. For added peace of mind, the Signature range is supported by an impressive 25-year guarantee, reflecting Robert Welch’s confidence in the durability and craftsmanship of its products.
