Dimensions & Weight
Exact measurements for this piece are being added — reach out and we're happy to confirm dimensions before you order.
Care & Maintenance
Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap, and dry immediately — never leave a blade soaking or run it through a dishwasher. Wipe on a light coat of food-grade mineral oil after use to protect the steel, and store it dry in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip. A few seconds of care after each use keeps a hand-forged edge true for decades.
Personalisation & Engraving
Add free engraving with the option above — up to 20 characters on the blade, or engrave the leather sheath. Adds 2 business days. Engraved pieces are final sale. For any other engraving request, email us at info@northboundblade.com.

From the forge
About this piece
A hand-forged bread knife with a long serrated edge that saws cleanly through crusty loaves without crushing the crumb. The blade carries a dark forge-finished spine that fades into a bright, sharpened serration.
The handle is fitted from solid olive wood with brass pins, giving it a warm, classic look on the counter.
- Hand-forged serrated blade
- Solid olive wood handle, brass pins
- Full tang construction
- Ideal for bread, baguettes, and other crusty loaves
Hand wash and dry after use; oil the blade occasionally to prevent staining — our Knife Care guide covers everything else worth knowing.
01 — Forged
Shaped at the anvil
Bar stock is heated and hammered to shape by hand — every bevel drawn out at the anvil, never stamped from a sheet.
02 — Tempered
Hardened true
Each blade is hardened and tempered in controlled cycles, balancing a keen, hard edge with a resilient spine.
03 — Finished
Fitted & inspected
Ground, polished and fitted with its handle, then inspected edge to pommel before it ever leaves the forge.
