New gift: artisanal bread knife

Following the success of a limited-edition, numbered run in September 2023, Richard Harris has now made the Real Bread Campaign knife a fixture on his product list.

Each knife will be handforged to order for you by Richard at his workshop in the heart of Shropshire.

• Entirely handmade by an artisan bladesmith
• 10" laminated mild steel or wrought iron blade
• Choice of local hardwood handles
• Peined copper pin
• Hot stamped (embossed) with the Real Bread Campaign logo and Richard’s own touchmark
• Wooden sheath available as an optional extra

An artisanal knife, perfect for artisanal bread.

Richard said: “I'm hugely honoured to be able to begin a long-term connection with the Real Bread Campaign. You can now order sourdough knives from me with a slice of each sale going to Sustain, the food and farming charity that runs the Campaign.”

6% of each sale goes to Sustain, the charity behind the Real Bread Campaign. Available for delivery worldwide.

A note from Richard: “As it's an entirely handforged and handmade process that cannot be rushed, my estimated turnaround is 20-24 weeks from ordering to dispatch.”
