Shun Classic 8.25" Offset Bread Knife

The Shun Classic 8.25" Offset Bread Knife is ideal for slicing bread, sandwiches and more, and is sure to become one of your favorite knives in the kitchen. Shun Classic Cutlery feature the look and benefits of Damascus steel. Because of the blade's Damascus-look profile, the potential for food sticking to the blade is reduced. Unlike Damascus steel, rusting is not a problem with Shun cutlery. The VG-10 stainless steel blade is clad with 16 layers of SUS410 high-carbon stainless steel on each side, giving the knife its Damascus-look. An ebony-black PakkaWood handle, stainless steel bolster and end cap round off the rest of the knife. Features of the Shun Classic 8.25" Offset Bread Knife include: Slice tender or crusty breads with no ripping, squashing, or tearing Scalloped serration design has excellent bite, but slices cleanly Proprietary VG-MAX cutting core is wear and corrosion resistant, strong, and very fine-grained to enable a long-lasting edge Hand-sharpened 34 layers of supporting stainless Damascus cladding each side (68 total) adds stain resistance D-shaped PakkaWood® handles are comfortable for both left- and right-handed users; durable, beautiful, and won't harbor bacteria Full composite tang and stainless steel end cap for light weight and perfect balance NSF Certified for professional use Handcrafted in Japan Manufacturer's free lifetime sharpening service (owner must pay shipping) Manufacturer's limited lifetime warranty
