You don’t want to be spending all that dough on a bread knife.

Thats the point. I need a new decent one. . Thats just ridiculous for a knife
£70 max rather £30

Bread is quite easy to cut, so does not need fancy steel or a fine edge. Stainless will do.

So I think the question is mostly, do you want serrated, scalloped, or straight? Will you ever sharpen it? Will you put it in a dishwasher?

Secondly, what sort of handle?

I have always preferred the black, riveted, bolstered Sabstier style for my knives. Some people prefer a wooden, moulded or warty metal handle.

The Dunelm one looks fantastic value if it is OK. Presumably it is on clearance. At that price you could try one, and bin it if useless.
