FUTURE 11 CM BUCKELS BREAKFAST KNIFE

A very sustainably produced German breakfast knife  "Buckels" from the knife city of Europe, Solingen. Messermeister has joined forces with Solinger to bring a high quality knife to the market for current and future generations. This knife has a sustainably produced FSC certified red beech handle which has the characteristic of having a good grip or better grip even when wet. When beech becomes wet, the fibers stand upright and thus provide a rougher surface when dry, unlike plastic variants. The blade is high quality stainless steel and with proper maintenance will last more than a lifetime. The metal is 100% recyclable and the handle is biodegradable.

The wide, carefully hand-polished blade makes it just as suitable for spreading butter as it is for cutting bread. A small sensation: even bread rolls are sliced smoothly without leaving an unwanted ball of crumbs in the middle. The name of the blade originally comes from the word “belly”, or “buck” in Low German, because of the round, bulbous shape of the blade. From a knifemaking perspective, it is one of the oldest blade shapes in Germany and is therefore called "ancient German".
