No kitchen is complete without a quality bread knife and after using the Shun Sora 9-in. Bread Knife, no other knife will do. With innovative, low frequency serrations, the blade smoothly and gently glides through the sturdiest crusts and gently cuts the delicate interior of bread loaves for perfect slices every time. While other knives have jagged, teeth-like, serrated edges, Shun Sora Bread Knife’s wider and slightly wavy serrations for smoother, easier cutting. The single-bevel blade is hand-sharpened at a 16-degree angle for a wicked-sharp edge that lasts a long time. The blade uses Shun’s proprietary Composite Blade technology to combine a VG10 san mai cutting core with a Japanese 420J blade upper. The steel is laser cut and braze welded together in an interlocking pattern resembling the hamon lines of traditional Japanese swords. The handle is made of a textured PP/TPE polymer blend, making it comfortable to hold, easy to control and maintenance-free.

  • SERRATED BREAD KNIFE: The Shun Sora 9-inch Bread Knife is expertly designed for cutting bread with ease. Wide teeth slice through tender and crusty bread alike with no ripping, squashing or tearing.
  • TRADITIONAL MEETS CONTEMPORARY: The Sora Series combines traditional Japanese aesthetics with patented Composite Blade technology to create knives with contemporary style, precise performance and incredible value.
  • PRECISE SHARPNESS: San Mai edge construction features VG10 steel supported by a 420J stainless steel blade upper for razor-sharp precision with a 16-degree edge.
  • BALANCED COMFORT: The full-tang and textured PP/TPE polymer blend handle offers a contemporary look and secure grip, providing optimal control for both left and right-handed users.
  • JAPANESE CRAFTSMANSHIP: Each Shun knife is meticulously handcrafted in Japan, reflecting a legacy of traditional knife-making expertise and a dedication to superior quality. Supported by free honing.
