I sharpen knives and have

I sharpen knives and have found that the Shun line holds the edge very long. We now have 4 of them in daily use and they need my attention depending on usage about once a month for a tune up with daily and or weekly stropping.
I wanted a serrated bread knife for bagels and baguettes shorter than the 12" one I've had for years. I love this one because the cut is precise and doesn't shred the bagel. It's also good for cutting the tomato or anything else you want in the sandwich. I use it for more than I thought I would.
This is a great all purpose knife. It cuts through vegetables, especially great with bell peppers, and fruits with ease. It’s a great shape for spreads on bread. I was surprised at how well it cut through a variety of cheeses and meats. It won’t replace my chef’s knife but it’s a good addition to my knife set.
The only knife you will need when making sandwiches as it effortlessly slices bagels/crusty breads, tomatoes, meats, cheeses, avocados, pickles and more. Also great for spreading the mayo and mustard.
