Wide Low‑Frequency Serrations, VG‑MAX Core, Clean Slicing Without Tearing
The Shun Classic 9" Bread Knife (DM0705) is engineered to slice through crusty artisan loaves, soft breads, pastries, and even tough‑skinned produce without crushing or tearing. Its wide, low‑frequency serrations create dozens of micro‑cutting points that glide through bread with minimal pressure, preserving both crust and crumb. The VG‑MAX cutting core provides excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance, clad in 68 layers of Damascus stainless steel for durability and a polished, flowing pattern.

The ebony‑finished D‑shaped Pakkawood handle offers a secure, comfortable grip with traditional Japanese styling. Designed for long, smooth strokes, the Classic Bread Knife is a kitchen essential for anyone who values clean, effortless slicing.
