SERRATED BREAD KNIFE: The Shun 9-inch Premier Grey Bread Knife glides through bread with ease, slicing tender and crusty breads alike with no ripping, squashing or tearing. It's also ideal for cakes and pastries. HIGHLY ENGINEERED SERRATIONS: This serrated knife doesn't have jagged teeth that chew through bread, but wide, razor-sharp, low-frequency serrations that gently slice with less tearing and crumbling. HIGH-QUALITY CONSTRUCTION: Constructed with Shun's proprietary VG-MAX cutting core and clad in 68 layers of stainless Damascus, this bread knife is corrosion and stain resistant with a strong, razor-sharp edge. BEAUTIFUL, DURABLE HANDLE: The stylish, grey, contoured Pakkawood handle resists moisture, is comfortable to use, and offers precise control. TRADITIONAL, ARTISAN CUTLERY: Inspired by the traditions of ancient Japan, Shun knives are handcrafted by highly skilled artisans to produce blades of unparalleled quality and beauty.
