What Is It Good For and Does It Need Sharpening?
The serrated edge is ideal for cutting soft fruits, vegetables, bread, and pastries. Serrated blades require sharpening less often than straight edges; when needed, use a serrated knife sharpener or hone with a ceramic rod.
Can It Cut Tomatoes and Bread Without Crushing Them?
Yes, the serrations grip the skin and cut cleanly, preventing crushing of soft interiors. It excels at slicing ripe tomatoes and crusty bread.
Are the Paysage Knife Handles Dishwasher Safe?
Hand washing is recommended to preserve the handle's finish and the blade's edge. Dishwashing may cause wear over time.
Serrated vs. Straight-Edge Paring Knife
Choose serrated for bread, tomatoes, and foods with tough skins; choose straight-edge for precision peeling and detail work. This serrated version is a great complement to a straight-edge paring knife.
