Shun - Kazahana Bread Knife, 9 Inch - Silver

This bread knife from the Shun Kazahana collection features wide, low-profile serrations along with a razor sharp edge to easily slice through crust without crushing the soft loaf. Use this knife to slice baguettes, cakes, and other baked goods without creating excess crumbs. The high performance blade is made from AUS10A Japanese steel. This high-carbon, vanadium stainless steel is hand-sharpened to a razor-sharp 16-degree cutting angle. The addition of vanadium makes steel harder, tougher, and more easily sharpened to a finer edge. Vanadium also increases wear resistance, so the blade stays sharper longer. The satin finish blade assists in food release. The polished black PakkaWood handle offers a secure comfortable grip.
