It’s a crime to ruin a fresh loaf of bread by smashing it beneath the blade of a dull knife. The wide, “low frequency” serrations on the Shun Classic Bread Knife are not only razor-sharp, but they do a much better job of slicing any type of bread than a straight-edged knife. The undulating serrations provide the power you need to gently saw through a crusty loaf without tearing the tender interior. And it works equally well on very soft breads and even pastries. Whether your bread is delicately tender or wonderfully crusty, just gently saw back and forth to cut off the perfect slice of bread with nary an unsightly rip or tear.

The tradition and skills handed down from the swordsmiths of ancient Japan have always been an inspiration and integral part of every Kai product since the company's foundation. Similarly, Kai Shun kitchen knives are made using a combination of state-of-the-art technology and long experience, and are highly esteemed all over the world. Each Shun knife is handcrafted in Japan and requires at least 100 meticulous steps to complete.

All Shun Classic knife purchases come in a beautifully presented gift box.
