Miyabi Pakkawood 5000FCD Bread Knife - 24cm

Clean slices, zero squish — crusty sourdough, soft brioche, and everything in between.

A good bread knife should do one thing brilliantly: slice cleanly without tearing the crust or compressing the crumb.

And fresh sourdough is the ultimate test — crisp, crackly shell with a soft, airy centre. Most knives make a mess of it (or worse… squash it). This one doesn’t.

With a 24cm blade for reach and control, the Miyabi 5000FCD Bread Knife gives you consistent, confident slices — whether it’s a crusty artisan loaf, baguette, sandwich bread, or delicate brioche.

Right tool. Right job. Big difference.

Chef Ian’s Take

If you love good bread, you need a bread knife that respects it.

This one slices cleanly through crusty loaves without turning the soft centre into a squashed mess — and once you’ve used a bread knife like this, it’s hard to go back.
