Create the perfect slices of bread, cakes and pastries with the Shun 9-inch Premier Grey Bread Knife. Unlike other kitchen knives, the serrations on this bread knife are not jagged teeth that chew through bread. They're wide, low-frequency, razor-sharp serrations that glide through tender and crusty breads alike with no ripping, squashing or tearing. The Premier Bread Knife Knife is constructed with Shun's proprietary VG-Max cutting core with 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding for a strong, corrosion-resistant, stain-resistant, razor sharp 16-degree edge. The hammered TSUCHIME finish is beautiful and helps release food easily when cutting. The stylish, grey, contoured Pakkawood handle is comfortable to use and offers a secure grip with excellent control. In Japan, the blade is more than a tool – it's a tradition. Housed in Seki City, the heart of the Japanese cutlery industry, Shun Fine Cutlery is dedicated to maintaining this ancient tradition. Each knife is handcrafted by highly skilled artisans to produce blades of unparalleled quality and beauty. We also leverage modern, premium materials and state-of-the-art technology to provide Shun quality to millions of professional chefs and avid home cooks throughout the world.

I am not a professional chef, don't even play one on TV.However, I do love to cook and appreciate good tools.And the 9-Inch Shun Shun Premier Bread Knife turns out to be a great tool for kitchen work!I have tried other knifes before, anything from Kyocera ceramic knifes to "Forever Sharp" mall specials and heavy (and expensive) German brands. At some point, all of them showed their weaknesses.So I was skeptical when I read the raving reviews of Shun knives, but decided to give them a try last year when Amazon had a great discount on the 6-Inch Shun TDM0723 Premier Chef Knife.And so far, I have not been disappointed! That Shun Chef knife has become my favorite knife and I had been lusting for the matching Bread Knife ever since.The reason I wanted a dedicated Bread Knife is my passion for Artisan Bread.Some of those breads have nice hard crusts that can challenge any knife.And if you ever had a squished soft bread after it was sliced with the wrong knife, you know what I am talking about.Serrations in the knifes blade help when cutting things that are hard on the outside and soft on the inside (such as bread) but also help cut soft bread without crushing it.Unfortunately, there was no discount or special deal for them this year, but I wanted this bread knife so badly that I still got it. Amazon had the best price and thanks to Amazon Prime, the knife arrived quickly, sharp and ready to use.It looks beautiful, has more heft than the Chef knife and is well balanced.And Bread is where the serrated blade of this knife really shines: almost no pressure is needed to cut into the hard crust of a nice artisan bread and the blade moves through it effortlessly once it is in, resulting in nice even slices. Unbelievable performance that leaves me with a smile on my face every time I use it.Soft bread offers no resistance and can be sliced without crushing or squishing it.I haven't tried it on anything else (the Shun Chef knife works great on e.g. tomatoes), but have no doubt it would perform flawlessly.Seriously, if you are looking for a new favorite bread knife, look no further. You can't go wrong with this one.
