If you bake or buy whole loaves of bread, a bread knife will be one of the most-used knives in your kitchen. Whether you love wonderfully crusty or delicately tender bread, the Shun Premier Blonde Bread Knife will be your loaf's new best friend, no matter what its texture. The key is Shun's razor-sharp, wide, “low frequency" serrations. Unlike a plain-edged knife, the serrations let you gently saw through the bread without crushing and with much less crumbing. Unlike sawtooth serrations that are spaced closer together, the Shun Premier Blonde Bread Knife's wide serrations will gently glide through the bread without tearing. This keeps the bread's texture intact and enhances eating pleasure. Cakes and pastries also benefit from the Shun Premier Blonde Bread Knife's smooth cutting capabilities.

- Beautiful, blonde Pakkawood handle is contoured for comfort and control; resists moisture

Bread Knife Performance Clean slices, without crushing For clean bread slices without crushing the loaf, three things matter most: a long blade for full slicing strokes, wide scalloped serrations, and a light touch with minimal downward pressure. The Shun Premier Blonde 9" Bread Knife is designed to help you slice crusty loaves, soft breads, and pastries cleanly without ripping, squashing, or tearing. Why It Slices So Cleanly The 9" blade supports longer strokes that help reduce compression, while wide, low-frequency serrations gently saw through crust without damaging the tender interior. High-performance VG-MAX steel helps keep the edge performing beautifully over time. Prefer an Offset Handle?
