A bread knife is simply a slicing knife that's serrated to saw through tough, crusty breads without crushing the delicate textures beneath. The Shun Offset Bread Knife is also 'offset' which means that the blade is cranked down an inch or so from the centerline of the handle. This allows you to cut all the way to the cutting board with much more ease than is possible in a straight knife, maintaining an optimal slicing angle the entire way.

Shun Classic knives are beautifully finished and constructed from only the finest materials: Stainless steel bolsters and buttcaps, Pakkawood resin handles, and VG-10 high-carbon stainless steel. The edge is hardened more than most knives, allowing for an extra sharp edge. The unique qualities of the steel keep the edge sharp without brittleness. The blade is clad with 16 layers of softer steel for durability, then etched to show the unique "damascus" finish. Shun Classic knives combine modern materials with classic design for truly masterful cutlery.
