Shun Classic Blonde 9-inch Bread Knife

Effortless Slices, Perfect Crumbs: The Shun Classic Blonde 9-inch Bread Knife


Conquer the crustiest artisan loaves and the most delicate cakes with the Shun Classic Blonde 9-inch Bread Knife. This masterfully engineered blade is designed to slice through bread without tearing the tender interior or compressing its delicate structure. Combining breathtaking aesthetics with unparalleled performance, it’s the essential tool for any kitchen that values perfect results.


The knife’s secret lies in its unique, wide-set serrations. These low-frequency "scallops" act like a saw, gently gliding through tough crusts with minimal pressure. This clean cut preserves the bread’s texture and produces fewer crumbs than a typical serrated knife. At its core is Shun's elite VG-MAX steel, clad in 68 layers of Damascus steel, ensuring a blade that is not only beautiful but exceptionally sharp and durable.

More Than Just a Bread Knife

While it excels at slicing sourdough, baguettes, and brioche, the Shun Classic Blonde Bread Knife is a versatile serrated utility tool. Its long blade and sharp serrations are perfect for carving roasted meats like brisket or turkey, slicing delicate tomatoes without bruising them, and portioning angel food cake without compression. It's the go-to knife for any task that requires a clean slice through a tough exterior and a soft interior.

Core Benefits:

  • Superior Serrated Edge: Features wide, razor-sharp serrations that gently saw through crusty exteriors and soft interiors alike, preventing crushing, tearing, and excessive crumbs.
  • High-Performance VG-MAX Core: The cutting core of "super steel" is hardened to 60-61 Rockwell, allowing it to take and hold a wickedly sharp edge for long-lasting performance.
  • Stunning Damascus Finish: The blade is clad in 68 micro-layers of stainless steel, creating the signature, rippling Damascus pattern that aids in food release and adds stain resistance.
  • Elegant Blonde PakkaWood® Handle: The comfortable, D-shaped handle is crafted from a durable, water-resistant wood composite in a beautiful light tone, offering exceptional grip and control.
  • Authentic Japanese Craftsmanship: Meticulously handcrafted by blade masters in Seki, Japan, this knife is the result of a 100-step process that blends ancient tradition with modern technology.
