CUTLERY Shun Classic Blonde 9″ Bread Knife

The new Shun Classic Blonde series features our 69-layer Damascus-clad blades and PakkaWood handles in a light and beautiful natural wood tone. From their high-performance VG-MAX cutting core to the exquisite flowing pattern of the Damascus cladding, to their polished end caps, these remarkable, handcrafted knives offer the same premium performance and materials as original Shun Classics. They are ultra-sharp, durable, beautifully balanced, and simply magnificent to behold. Our initial offering includes five of the most-wanted culinary blade shapes.

Light, Natural Pakkawood Handle

These traditional Japanese-style handles have a slight ridge on the right side, which fits into the curl of the fingers for a comfortable and secure grip. Viewed end-on, the shape resembles the capital letter “D”. Pakkawood is waterproof, incredibly durable, and won’t harbor bacteria.

Product Features

• Made in Japan with a VG-MAX high carbon steel core and eye-catching Damascus cladding, the Shun Classic Blonde Bread Knife glides through baguettes and brioche alike.
• The beautifully modern, D-shaped, blonde PakkaWood handle encases the full composite tang blade for balance, reducing unwanted rotation and improving grip for both right and left-handed chefs.
• This knife is a baker or pastry chef’s best friend in the kitchen. The “low-frequency” wave pattern of its design cleanly slices with light pressure. Never again crush, tear, and rip your bread apart with a serrated knife.
• Handcrafted in Japan, this kitchen knife is ground and honed to a razor-sharp 16-degree edge out of the box. It’s balanced immediately forward of the bolster like most Shun knives for superior handling.
• Santoku, Nakiri, boning, slicing, or steak – Shun blades glide through food when used in a back-and-forth or rocking motion that applies some force parallel to what’s being cut, letting the edge do the work.
