Abstract: A new bread knife in accordance with the present invention has one knife handle connected to multiple knife blades through one or more bars arranged perpendicularly to the knife handle and blades. The blades are arranged in parallel with one another and in co-planar fashion to as to make contact with the bread at substantially the same time during use, enabling one to cut the bread into multiple slices or pieces through a single cutting motion. The bread knife preferably has 2-4 blades, and could have an even or uneven number of blades up to as many as 13 blades. Each blade is preferably made of metal and has a serrated or non-serrated edge, to allow cutting of the bread at different locations through a single either back-and-forth sawing motion or simply a pressing down motion.
