Hi KKF!
I've been intending to pick up a really nice bread knife. I've learned that Guede will be offering a stainless damascus bread sword (with handmade damascus), but as the price is right up there with a full custom, I'm looking into custom options.

I know that this obviously would not be the case for any straight edged blade, but are things different when dealing with serrations?
As an example of what would be possible with a full custom, I recently stumbled across this blade by Michael Rader while looking into custom options:
