Nuz No. 4 Knife - The Baker

The Nuz No. 4 is the only bread knife you’ll need, featuring a precision serrated edge designed to effortlessly slice through everything from crusty sourdough loaves to soft brioche. Handcrafted in Waiuku, New Zealand, Nuz combines over 40 years of knife-making expertise with carefully considered materials. The blade is made from Swedish carbon steel produced from recycled saw blades, paired with an American Ash wood handle sourced from an FSC-certified supplier and finished with three brass rivets for a timeless, simple design.

Size: Total knife length - 36.3cm, blade length - 24.3cm, blade width - 3.4cm 

Material: Swedish carbon steel blade, produced from recycled saw blades, with an FSC certified American Ash wood handle

Care: Please note that carbon steel blades require a little extra care to maintain their performance and keep them in top condition.

• Always hand wash your knife with warm, soapy water and dry it immediately after use. Avoid placing it in the dishwasher or leaving it damp for extended periods.
• Store your knife in a wooden knife block or on a magnetic rack to protect the blade.
• If surface rust appears, gently remove it using a scouring pad.
• Occasionally apply a small amount of Camellia Oil to the blade to create a protective layer and help prevent rust. Olive, vegetable, or mineral oils can also be used.

For sharpening, a whetstone is recommended over a steel. A steel is designed to realign the edge of a blade, whereas a whetstone provides a more precise sharpening to maintain the knife’s performance.
