Looking for a beautiful, very functional/good quality and relatively inexpensive serrated bread knife 🔪🍞(willing to invest but I saw one amazing striped one here on RL but was $350, just not quite in the budget…)

This is the knife that made me “get” knives.: It was an underwhelming gift from my dad when I opened it. Then, I sliced a baguette and OMG. I’m not very experienced in the kitchen and had never used a knife that was new, good, or had a special purpose.

Wüsthof Gourmet 8" Bread Knife: I’ve had this knife for FOURTEEN YEARS so I’d say that’s a good indication that it’s built to last. It has survived my covid sourdough phase, hundreds of bagels, and years of heirloom tomatoes. Full disclosure: since it has been SO long, I’m not positive if it’s the Classic or Gourmet, but all my research says Gourmet is lighter so I think this is it! It’s definitely Wüsthof though, so I would recommend the brand.
