Shun Premier 9" Bread Knife – TDM0705 – Made in Japan – Authorized USA Dealer

The Shun Premier 9" Bread Knife is designed for clean, effortless slicing through crusty loaves, tender pastries and hard-skinned produce. Handcrafted in Japan, this knife combines precision Japanese craftsmanship with modern performance materials to create a bread knife that cuts smoothly with minimal pressure.

The long, curved blade allows full slicing strokes, while the razor-sharp serrations glide through tough crusts without crushing the soft interior. From artisan sourdough to ripe tomatoes and large melons, this knife delivers consistent, clean results.
