Strong crusts and tender interiors – the AKANE bread knife masters both effortlessly.

Its deep serrated edge, long 73-layer Damascus blade, and dark rosewood handle ensure clean, even slices of everything from sourdough to panettone.

Each knife is unique – with individual damask grain and a natural wood handle, which can be engraved upon request to create a truly personal work of art.

MISAKI – where quality meets art.

A soft interior meets a hard crust – and this is exactly where a good knife differs from an excellent one.

The AKANE bread knife was designed to meet the highest standards: The extra-deep serrated edge glides precisely through baguettes, sourdough loaves, or panettone without crushing the product. The stable, powerful blade ensures complete control – even with large fruits or hard pastries.

For clean, dimensionally stable slices – from baguettes to panettone.

Each blade is hand-ground in several steps and carefully inspected – for uncompromising sharpness, maximum wear resistance, and absolute control with every cut. The fine-grain powder steel core retains its edge exceptionally well and can be precisely resharpened as needed.

blade

73 layers of hammered Damascus steel with a high-alloy powder steel core (14Cr14MoVNb) and 72 layers of rust-resistant SUS 410 stainless steel.

The vacuum and cryogenic heat treatment creates an extremely fine microstructure with the highest hardness. With a Rockwell hardness of 62–64 HRC, the blade is among the most durable and cutting-edge blades in its class. The niobium content in the core gives the blade extreme sharpness and maximum wear resistance.

The Japanese V-grind with 15° per side guarantees uncompromising precision. Exception: The bread knife uses a single-sided 30° serrated edge.

The characteristic hammering gives the Damascus knife a special character and underlines its handcrafted aesthetic.

Half bolster and full tang ensure balanced weight distribution, increased stability and maximum durability during intensive use.

Handle

The ergonomically shaped handle made of dark, noble rosewood lies comfortably and securely in the hand – even during prolonged use.

Each handle is finely polished several times to achieve a particularly smooth, supple surface that not only looks high-quality but also provides a pleasant grip.

Suitable for left- and right-handed users.
