Shun Premier Bread 9" Knife

Hand wash the Shun Premier Bread 9" Knife with gentle dish soap rather than in the dishwasher, and dry it very thoroughly. Use a cutting board soft enough to take a slight cut line, never metal, tile, ceramic, marble, granite, glass, plastic, acrylic, or titanium, and avoid frozen foods, bones, and pits. Store it in a block, case, in-drawer holder, sheath, magnetic bar, or the original box.

Shun's Limited Lifetime Warranty covers manufacturing defects in material and construction for the original owner of knives purchased through an authorized dealer such as Design & Grace, and it is non-transferable. Normal wear, rust, improper use or maintenance, accidents, loss, theft, and modified products are not covered; Shun's wood accessories have a 90-day warranty against original manufacturing defects, but not natural wear. Shun will sharpen your Shun cutlery free for as long as you own it, with a $15 shipping and processing fee in the US. Serrated knives can be honed by Shun's service but cannot be sharpened.

Shun's service can hone the serrated Shun Premier Bread 9" Knife but cannot sharpen it. The service is available for knives bought from an authorized dealer such as Design & Grace, with a $15 shipping and processing fee in the US.

The Shun Premier Bread 9" Knife uses wide, low-frequency serrations to cut crusty or tender bread without tearing or crushing. Cakes and pastries also benefit from its serrated edge.

Use long, gentle strokes and let the serrations do the work. Pressing down too hard can compress the loaf.
