Intro

Bring a bold touch of color to your Shabbat table with this turquoise challah knife, its handle cut through with an openwork Hebrew blessing pattern. The serrated blade sits beneath a metal handle finished in bright turquoise, the cutout lettering framed by delicate floral shapes. Designed by Jerusalem artist Yair Emanuel, whose work has shaped Jewish tables for over two decades.

Build and Use

Used to slice the challah at the start of the Shabbat and Yom Tov meal, the knife pairs a stainless steel serrated blade with a laser cut metal handle. The handle measures 12.5 inches by 1.5 inches, finished in turquoise with the blessing over bread worked through the metal in cutout script. A matching turquoise sleeve slips over the blade edge for safe storage between uses.

Gift Ideas

The bright color and detailed handle make this knife a natural gift for a wedding, housewarming, or engagement. It suits a bar or bat mitzvah as well, or a gift for a couple furnishing a new Jewish home. The design also stands out simply as a colorful addition to a Judaica collection.

Care Instructions

Hand wash the blade and handle and dry thoroughly to keep the metal finish bright. Avoid abrasive cleaners or the dishwasher, which can dull the turquoise coating and the cutout detail.
