Hey guys, I think I'm going to get my mother a nice bread knife for Christmas this year. She cuts a lot of breads and fresh rolls. I'm not a bread knife user and know little or nothing about them. What is your favorite or a quality bang for the buck bread knife? $100+/-
 
Mac sbk-105 or Tojiro ITK 270mm. I think most people here go with the Tojiro.
 
The MAC has a really nice handle.

Others in order of $$$

Misono Moly
Tojiro ITK
Suisin Inox - sub $50!
JKI Bread Knife

I gave my MAC away. I like to cut bread with a gyuto :O

I've had four breadknives. Henckels, Forschner and two Tojiros. I still have one Tojiro ITK. It's works great but I haven't used it in probably a year or so. The others have been given away. Of the others I've used, MAC is also nice.
 
I sent a Tojiro back because of lack of fit and finish on the handle. I'm sure it is a good cutter but I would recommend the MAC if it's a gift.

I did too . . . until a loaf of sprouted seed sourdough with a hard crust gave my gyuto multiple chips to make it look a bit like a serrated bread knife. I have a Mac now and it cuts and looks great.
 
I went with the Mac because of its reputation for excellent fit and finish and have no regrets. I was tempted by the Misono, but decided I prefer the curve of the Mac and Tojiro.
