OK, I don't usually follow customs such as these, but times being what they are ... I just bought myself a paring knife. I would have loved a challah knife (I don't own one), but I'd need the parnassa first!

Aren't challah knives serrated? Mine is. (It actually was cheaper than my good cutting knife. I paid $18 for one with a sterling silver handle. My cutting knife came from Tuesday morning and I paid $35 for it. I was tired of dull knives, so I splurged last year.)

I think you're right, challah knives are serrated. At least the bread knives (not specifically challah) at the store were serrated.
I'll be using my new paring knife to cut apples tonight, in any case.

Let me know if it works any better. A git gebentcht yohr, regardless. Let's all hope this year brings us moshiach b'mheira u'venaikel. Enough of these tzoros already. Once moshiach comes we will have all we can ever ask for and may ever need.
