Shun DM0705 Classic 9-Inch Bread Knife

A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this bread knife comfortably handles everything from rustic artisan breads to baguettes--and even dessert items such angel food cake or chocolate tart. Featuring a serrated blade measuring 9 inches in length, this tool won’t tear or crush foods during slicing.

Leveraging a 90-year history of superior workmanship, Shun knives are precision-forged in Japan by renowned blade manufacturer KAI. Using technologically advanced processes, a VG-10 "super steel" core is clad with 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free Damascus-look blade. The Damascus detailing not only enhances the knife’s aesthetic appeal, it also prevents morsels from sticking and helps avoid damaging foods. Forming a comfortable D-shaped hold, a fused blend of hardwood veneers and resin comprise the unique ebony Pakkawood handle. A traditionally offset stainless-steel bolster protects knuckles while a steel end-cap finishes the piece. Although dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. This product includes a lifetime warranty. -- Amy Arnold
