A bread knife worthy of artisan loaves. Whether used for slicing bread from a bakery or your own homemade loaves, this handcrafted knife is the proper tool for the job. The wide and wavy serrations reduce tearing and crumbling, yielding perfect slices of breads, cakes and pastries. Created by talented artisans, this knife joins a high-carbon vanadium stainless steel blade with a handle made of durable tagayasan—known in Japan as "iron sword wood." The dramatic graining of the wenge wood pairs intriguingly with the blade's subtly textured finish.
Each exquisite Shun knife is carefully crafted in a 100-step process inspired by ancient sword smiths. The amazing razor-sharp blades are created in Seki City, Japan's 700-year-old center for samurai swords.
