Shun Premier 9 in. (230mm) Serrated Bread Knife
Slice through any loaf with precision and ease with the Shun Premier 9-inch Serrated Bread Knife. Designed for everything from rustic, crusty boules to delicate brioche, this knife preserves the integrity of your bread, ensuring perfect slices with minimal effort. The blade's performance comes from its wide, "low-frequency" serrations. Unlike smaller, more aggressive teeth that can tear soft interiors, these larger, undulating serrations gently glide through the bread, significantly reducing crumbs and preventing the loaf from crushing. At its core, the blade features Shun's proprietary VG-MAX "super steel," a high-carbon formula with added tungsten for a finer, sharper edge, chromium for corrosion resistance, and cobalt and carbon for increased strength and durability. This wear-resistant core is protected by 68 layers of Damascus cladding, which not only provides support but also contributes to the blade's stunning aesthetic. A key feature of the Premier line is the hand-hammered tsuchime finish. This traditional Japanese technique creates a beautiful, textured pattern that also serves a practical purpose: the indentations form small air pockets, reducing drag and allowing food to release easily from the blade for a smoother, quicker cut. The knife's exceptional balance and control are complemented by a contoured, walnut-finished PakkaWood handle. This durable, resin-impregnated hardwood is engineered to resist moisture and bacteria, offering a comfortable and hygienic grip for both right and left-handed users. Handcrafted in Seki, Japan, through a meticulous 100-step process, the Shun Premier Bread Knife is a functional work of art, blending ancient sword-making traditions with modern material science.

Shun Kanso 9-inch Bread Knife (SWT0705)
Master the Crust Without Crushing the Crumb The Shun Kanso 9-inch Bread Knife is a definitive tool for those who understand that bread is as much about texture as it is about taste. Guided by the Japanese principle of 'Kanso'—or essential simplicity—this knife strips away the unnecessary to focus on what truly matters: a flawless cut. Whether you are a professional pastry chef managing a high-volume brunch service or a home baker perfecting your weekend sourdough, the SWT0705 offers a level of precision that standard serrated knives simply cannot match. Engineered for More Than Just Bread While most serrated knives rely on aggressive, jagged teeth that tear at the fibers of your food, the Shun Kanso features wide, low-frequency serrations. These act more like a precision saw, biting into the toughest artisan crusts while gliding through the soft interior without the friction that leads to crushing. This unique geometry makes it an indispensable 'utility slicer' in the kitchen. It excels at tasks that frustrate straight-edged blades, such as halving a ripe pineapple, portioning a delicate angel food cake, or slicing through the waxy skin of a winter squash with absolute control. Professional-Grade Materials At the core of the blade is AUS10A high-carbon stainless steel, refined to a Rockwell hardness of 59/60. This ensures that the tips of the serrations remain sharp through thousands of slices. The 'Heritage' finish isn't just aesthetic; it is a practical feature designed to hide the scratches that inevitably come with years of dedicated use. The handle is crafted from Tagayasan wood, known in Japan as 'Iron Sword Wood.' This dense, durable material is contoured to fit the hand comfortably, providing a secure grip even during long prep sessions. With full-tang construction, the balance is shifted toward the center, giving you a nimble feel that belies its 9-inch length. Learn More$144.95 -

Mercer Millennia 10 in. Wide Bread Knife with White & Black Handle
Serrated Precision for High-Volume Production Master the toughest crusts and softest interiors with a 10-inch wide-profile blade forged from high-carbon Japanese steel and engineered for maximum lateral stability. In a professional kitchen, a bread knife is judged by its ability to track straight and bite instantly. The Mercer Millennia 10-inch Wide Bread Knife (M23210WBH) excels where thinner serrated blades fail. The 'wide' geometry provides additional weight and surface area, preventing the blade from wandering when sectioning dense sourdough boules or oversized sandwich loaves. This lateral stiffness ensures that every slice is uniform from the top crust to the bottom board. When handling this tool, the first thing you notice is the tactile security of the Santoprene® handle. It features a pebbled texture that remains slip-resistant even when your hands are wet or covered in flour. The ergonomic blend of soft Santoprene and durable polypropylene creates a handle that absorbs the shock of repetitive sawing motions, significantly reducing wrist fatigue during a full shift of prep work. Performance-wise, the wavy edge is ground to a razor-sharp profile that 'grabs' the slick skin of a tomato or the hard shell of a baguette without requiring downward pressure. This 'bite-and-glide' action preserves the delicate crumb structure of the bread, preventing the compression or tearing common with inferior stamped blades. The high-carbon Japanese steel allows for rapid edge touch-ups, ensuring this workhorse stays in service through months of heavy use. We also carry the same knife in a black handle that is Available Here. Learn More$23.35 -
Mercer Millennia 10 in. Bread Knife
The Mercer Millennia 10-inch Wide Bread Knife is a staple in professional kitchens for a reason: it solves the problem of lateral blade wander. When slicing through dense, rustic sourdough or soft brioche, the 1.375-inch blade width provides the surface area necessary to keep your cuts vertical and consistent. In hands-on testing, the aggressive serrations engage immediately, requiring minimal downward pressure which prevents the crushing of delicate interiors. The tactile experience is defined by the Santoprene handle—a textured, polypropylene-based grip that remains secure even when your hands are wet or covered in flour. This is a critical safety feature in fast-paced commercial environments. The 10-inch (254mm) length allows for a full-stroke draw on oversized loaves, reducing the 'sawing' motion that often leads to ragged edges. Whether you are a culinary student working through a heavy prep list or a home baker seeking professional results, this stamped blade delivers high-carbon performance without the high-cost barrier. We also carry the same knife with a black and white handle that is Available Here. Learn More$23.35 -
Mercer Millennia 8 in. Scalloped Bread Knife
Surgical Precision for the Hardest Crusts A high-carbon, stain-free 8-inch workhorse designed for high-volume prep and zero-slip safety. The Mercer Millennia 8-inch Scalloped Bread Knife is a specialized tool engineered for the high-cadence environment of commercial kitchens. When you handle this knife, the first thing you notice is the weight-to-balance ratio. At a 53-54 HRC, the blade is hard enough to maintain a biting edge through hundreds of loaves, yet flexible enough to prevent snapping under lateral pressure. Unlike generic serrated knives that tear through bread, these scalloped edges are ground to pierce hard sourdough crusts and then glide through soft, airy centers without compressing the crumb. The tactile experience is defined by the dual-material handle. By combining high-impact polypropylene for structural integrity with Santoprene for a rubberized, cushioned feel, the knife remains secure in your hand even when covered in flour, oil, or water. This 'no-slip' grip is a critical safety feature in fast-paced line work. The 8-inch length is specifically chosen for versatility—long enough to handle standard pullman loaves and boules, but compact enough for detail work like slicing ripe tomatoes or thin-skinned citrus without losing control of the tip. This is not just a bread knife; it is a high-utility station knife that thrives under the physical demands of a professional sandwich shop or bakery. Learn More$20.15 -
