Choose a thickness reference.

Find a steady rhythm through crust and crumb. A bow frame holds the serrated blade in tension, while the offset handle and four scale marks guide the working setup.
DESIGNED WITH PURPOSE
Explore the marked frame, working clearance, protective cover and handle assembly before the first loaf.
Use the 1/4-, 1/2-, 3/4- and 1-inch marks on the frame as visual references. The marks guide your position; they do not automatically adjust or lock the slice thickness.
The raised handle provides working clearance. Support the loaf on a suitable board and use a controlled back-and-forth motion.
After hand washing and drying, fit the supplied blade cover before storing. Keep sharp tools out of reach of children.
Align the handle with the mounting points and secure the supplied handle hardware with the included hex key. Check the handle is secure before cutting.
The blade is tensioned within the frame. Do not remove, loosen or attempt to readjust the blade-tension screws. The included hex key is for handle assembly.
The right-handed bread knife comes in gift packaging with its cover and handle assembly components. Boards, bread and sharpening tools shown are not included.
MATERIAL. FORM. PURPOSE.
The serrated edge can be maintained with a suitably sized rounded sharpening tool, or by a professional sharpening service. Work on individual scallops; do not remove the blade from its tensioned frame. Sharpening tools are not included.
