One of the oldest blade shapes in Germany, the Buckels Breakfast Knife features a simple yet versatile broad blade—and once you welcome it into your kitchen, you'll never want another morning meal without it.

With its unassuming rounded blade, this ultra-sharp stainless steel knife cuts through crusty bread or firm sausage just as easily as it spreads butter and jam. Rolls can be cleanly split without damaging the crumb, and it slices cheese and fresh fruit with finesse.

Sourced from the northern slopes of German and Austrian forests, each cherrywood handle is expertly ground, free-formed, and polished by hand—bringing natural beauty to any table.

For a complete breakfast set, meet its smaller counterpart, the Mini Buckels Butter Knife.

Materials
