About this item

The Shun Classic 8.25-inch Offset Bread Knife is a specialized bread cutting knife designed to gently slice through breads, cakes and pastries. Instead of jagged teeth that chew through bread, this knife features wide, low frequency serrations that glide. As part of the pioneering Classic Series, the first Japanese cutlery line introduced to the United States, this knife combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. Featuring a VG-MAX steel core and 68 layers of Damascus cladding, this Shun Bread knife offers exceptional sharpness with a precise 16-degree edge. The D-shaped Pakkawood handle ensures a comfortable, secure grip for both left and right-handed users. Supported by free honing. Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Classic Offset Bread Knife embodies centuries of knife-making expertise and a commitment to superior quality.
