Shun Classic Offset Bread Knife, 9"

Originating in Seki City, Japan’s historical center for manufacturing samurai swords, Shun knives are heirs to a seven-century tradition of superior workmanship. Every Shun knife is an outstanding example of form fulfilling function. Both sides of its exquisitely forged VG-10 “super steel” blade are clad with 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free Damascus steel surface. The blade of the offset bread knife reduces sticking and sinks into food so efficiently that a light touch is all that’s necessary. Every Shun knife has a D-shaped handle for maximum comfort and efficiency. Click here to view a Shun cutlery video featuring TV host and author Alton Brown.
