These are lightweight, dishwasher-safe pieces that are 100% Swiss made and feature colorful handles. In a collection where functionality is combined with fun, weve also put together some of our most useful knife blocks and gift sets. Theres nothing this collection doesnt cover.

Although called a Swiss Classic “Bread Knife”, this versatile knife offers much more than its name indicates. Aside from bread, it’s a go-to knife for leveling cakes, cutting sandwiches, and slicing tomatoes or other easily bruised fruits and vegetables. Even slicing roasts or large, hard-skinned fruits and vegetables, such as watermelons or pineapples, are all simple tasks for this knife. Designed to effortlessly cut through foods that are hard on the outside and soft on the inside, the serrated blade offers the perfect balance of strength and dexterity, making this multifaceted knife a must-have for every home chef.

If you are only going to have one serrated knife, then the 10.25″ Swiss Classic Curved Bread Knife is the way to go. The sharp points of the serrated edge pierce into hard crusty loaves or soft skinned fruits and veggies to maintain a strong hold and offer better control throughout slicing. The scallops between each point reduce friction, so each slice feels effortless. The scallops also prevent the knife from squashing bread slices or the tender interiors of fruits and vegetables. The heft helps to make quick work of melon rinds and pineapples, while the razor sharp blade is perfect for slicing delicate eggplants and peaches.

At 10.25″, the blade is long enough to saw through large loaves of bread or cakes, but still offers the control needed when cutting smaller items like tomatoes or baguettes. However, its the curved blade that really sets this knife apart. A curved blade allows you to comfortably slice soft fruits and vegetables with a rocking motion, and it has plenty of knuckle clearance which is something a straight bread knife cannot offer. Whether you prefer to cut wafer-thin slices or large hearty ones, the thin blade offers the presicion needed for even slices every time.
