Cutlery Shop

[Tripod Mike]

Knowing there are many culinary hobbyist out and around Pattaya area, I thought this was an ideal place to ask the following:
I'm looking for a serrated bread knife to cut the french and restaurant bread. My hacksaw doesn't get it. Yes, there's one store next to Foodland which has household kitchen supplies, but paying 420 baht for a common hand potato masher is absurd.

I bought a cheap serrated bread knife many years ago at Foodmart. It still slices my bread like a charm. Not sure what 420 baht for a potato masher has to do with a bread knife.

I was insinuating the store items are exceedingly high-end expensive which keeps me from entering for any further purchases. Tomorrow I'll look inside FoodMart. Thank you for the suggestion.

If you don't find what you're looking for at Food Mart (not to be confused with Family Mart), try any of the large hardware stores. They all sell knife sets. Some sell knives individually too. You can also try Index Furniture. They have a large kitchenware selection.

On Second Rd on right side, going with traffic, not too far beyond Boyztown, there is a shop specializing in all things culinary. Cutlery, pots, pans, dishes, glasses and on and on and on. Some items are pricey and others are reasonable. They will have your item.
You could also check the second floor of Friendship Market on Pattaya Tai Rd.

The shop you are talking about on Second Road is owned by the same people as the one next to Foodland.

Aha! That explains why that potato masher was so expensive.

Thank you everyone and especially you Ivdkeyes for your helpful comments. I went straight to Foodmart and found the perfect breadknife for 150 baht. What a joy to use - I now have so many slices of bread I don't know what to do with. Ha! Case closed.

[lvdkeyes]

Glad to help.

Just in case, for those other bread cutters, Friendship Market upstairs has a nice bread knife at about 160 TB plus another one at about 1000 TB which would be excellent for decapitations.
