I should note that the knife youre looking at is not serrated which is not ideal for cutting challah FWIW

Takes a few passes at first, but then slices down perfectly.

Exactly. And that's why it's probably better to use a bread knife where you need but one pass, but whatever works for you

Haven’t found any particularly good deals on that there, and you can only buy on way out.

how does this wine compare to the Forest?

I suspect that it is a "fire sale". Tel Arad was only ever available at the TLV Duty Free. Not in any regular wine shops. Initially it was also sold as such at the Duty Free.

Personally, I found it quite disastrous, and felt it had been a waste of money, even at the heavily discounted price it was selling for. Hence my hunch that the Duty Free was stuck with too much unsold stock and that explains the heavy discount.

Buyer Beware.
