Shun

“Shun” (shoon) is a concept at the very heart of Japanese cuisine. In Japanese, shun is the word used to describe local, seasonal food when it is at the peak of its flavor and freshness—at the peak of its perfection.

Shun Cutlery is known for its exquisite beauty and ultra-premium performance. Yet as beautiful as Shun is on the outside, and as beautifully as it performs in your kitchen, its true beauty may be in what you don’t see.

Handcrafted in Japan

Shun is dedicated to maintaining this ancient tradition by continuing to handcraft each knife in our Seki City facilities. Each piece of this fine kitchen cutlery takes at least 100 individual steps to complete. While we maintain these ancient traditions of handcrafted quality, we also take advantage of thoroughly modern, premium materials and state-of-the-art technology to provide that traditional quality to millions of professional chefs and avid home cooks throughout the world.

Knife Steel is Essential

Heat treatment—an invisible, yet vital, process. This exacting process is fundamentally important to ensuring that your Shun provides lasting value. In heat treatment, the metal is heated and cooled to change its microstructure, bringing out its very best properties. With precise heat treatment, blade steel becomes finer grained, making it stronger and harder so blades can be thinner, sharper, and give you a longer-lasting edge. Shun’s experts are, quite simply, masters of the heat treatment process.

Quality and Performance

Shun is the exact moment when a fruit has reached its ideal ripeness, when a vegetable is at its very best, or when meat is at its most flavorful. Home cooks and professional chefs alike celebrate shun in their kitchens, eagerly awaiting each season’s bounty and serving every ingredient in its proper time.

Shun Cutlery proudly takes its name from this Japanese culinary tradition of eating the freshest food at the perfect moment. We took this name to honor this seasonal, mindful way of eating and as a mark of our dedication to making kitchen cutlery that is always at the peak of its perfection, too.

Shun Classic

shun classic, classic chef knife, shun chef knife, classic knifes

Shun Classics are the original Shuns, the first Japanese-style knives to be made available to a wider audience in North America. Instead of heavy ponderous blades, Shun Classic blades are lighter with razor-sharp edges and crafted from advanced steel. Rather than weighty, Western handles, Shun Classic offers the graceful control of a traditional Japanese handle.

With Shun Classic, you'll discover a wide selection of traditional blade shapes as well as unique shapes - so you can always find the right handcrafted knife for every kitchen task.

Pakkawood Handle

These traditional Japanese-style handles have a slight ridge on the right side, which fits into the curl of the fingers for a comfortable and secure grip. Viewed end-on, the shape resembles the capital letter "D". Pakkawood is waterproof, incredibly durable, and won't harbor bacteria.

Product Description

Product Description

Create the perfect slices of bread, cakes and pastries with the Shun 9-inch Classic Bread Knife. Unlike other kitchen knives, the serrations on this bread knife are not jagged teeth that chew through bread. They're wide, low-frequency, razor-sharp serrations that glide through tender and crusty breads alike with no ripping, squashing or tearing. The Classic Bread Knife Knife is constructed with Shun's proprietary VG-Max cutting core with 68 layers of stainless Damascus cladding for a strong, corrosion-resistant, stain-resistant, razor-sharp 16-degree edge that glides through food. The D-shaped, ebony-finished Pakkawood handle is durable, beautiful, comfortable for both left- and right-handed users, and doesn't harbor bacteria. In Japan, the blade is more than a tool – it's a tradition. Housed in Seki City, the heart of the Japanese cutlery industry, Shun Fine Cutlery is dedicated to maintaining this ancient tradition. Each knife is handcrafted by highly skilled artisans to produce blades of unparalleled quality and beauty. We also leverage modern, premium materials and state-of-the-art technology to provide Shun quality to millions of professional chefs and avid home cooks throughout the world.

Amazon.com

A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this bread knife comfortably handles everything from rustic artisan breads to baguettes--and even dessert items such angel food cake or chocolate tart. Featuring a serrated blade measuring 9 inches in length, this tool won’t tear or crush foods during slicing.

Leveraging a 90-year history of superior workmanship, Shun knives are precision-forged in Japan by renowned blade manufacturer KAI. Using technologically advanced processes, a VG-10 "super steel" core is clad with 16 layers of high-carbon stainless steel to produce a rust-free Damascus-look blade. The Damascus detailing not only enhances the knife’s aesthetic appeal, it also prevents morsels from sticking and helps avoid damaging foods. Forming a comfortable D-shaped hold, a fused blend of hardwood veneers and resin comprise the unique ebony Pakkawood handle. A traditionally offset stainless-steel bolster protects knuckles while a steel end-cap finishes the piece. Although dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. This product includes a lifetime warranty. -- Amy Arnold

I just recently discovered the joy of 100% rye bread - very healthy, low-carb, high fiber! The problem is that it’s dense, hard, and difficult to slice (without the right tool). I was using a serrated Shun that I think is meant for slicing meat, and it didn’t work at all on the thick, tough crust of the rye loaf. Enter the Shun bread knife - it really helps to have the right tool for the job. This knife slices through the rye like butter; it makes it easy to make even, thin slices of bread, as the rye is better when sliced thin. Definitely a great knife for dense, hard breads, and I imagine that it would work equally well on a lighter type of bread - very happy!

I run the AM pantry in a higher end restaurant. I slice, on average, 200 orders of toast a day. Plus slice house made breads. Started with a cheap bread knife, bought a couple of higher end bread knives, but the serrations were always too sharp and bit in instead of slicing. The more rounded edges on the serrations of this knife. work much better for me. Incredibly sharp. The handle is not symmetrical. It seems to have been designed for a right handed person, which I am. Fits great, feels great, has perfect balance right at the bolster. Expensive? Yes. Worth the money? For me, certainly yes. I use every work day for hours. Wish I had invested years ago. For a casual cook? Probably not.

I am an artisan bread freak for many years and have been frustrated with the run of the mill bread knives that I have used. I do not recall how I came across this knife on Amazon, but I was immediately taken by the artistry of the steel work, so I thought it was worth a try just to have such a beautifully made object to use every day.

In practice, the knife is a work of art, but also an extraordinarily functional article as well. The blade is scary sharp as well as incredibly stiff, so it slices through whatever loaf of bread you throw at it with ease. It feels like you're wielding a miniature samurai sword.

Needless to say, I feel this was worth every penny and appreciate the craftsmanship every time I use it. How often can you say that?

I've gone through different brands of bread knives over the years; some cheap, some expensive. I decided to take a chance and splurge on this knife and all I can say is that it is FANTASTIC! I'm so glad I purchased it. It is comfortable and balanced, looks great, and has a good feel to it. The first time I used it, I sliced way more bread than I needed simply because it was so effortless! This knife cuts through crusty or chewy bread with ease. It cuts pound cake and banana pumpkin loaf like it's butter. This is the best bread knife I've ever had and I highly recommend it.

p.s. - It also slices through meatloaf without making a mess.

There are things in life that rarely happen, but when they do, you want to have the right equipment. I have a winch on my Jeep that rarely gets used, but when I got stuck in the snow last winter, it was so much better to have that, than the alternative solutions of getting out of the snow. I understand that you rarely have the need for a bread knife, and you are probably thinking to yourself, why spend this much money on something that I will probably use a couple times a month if that? Because when it is time to slice that loaf of bread, hallelujah this is slicing nirvana. There is no smashing of the loaf, and the blade slides through as if it were a warm butter knife, and the bread was a stick of butter. I also use it for tomatoes and other foods that can easily be smashed while cutting.

Just do it, it's the right choice.

Vous recherchez un couteau qui coupe comme une lame de rasoir, ne cherchez plus. Il est excellent et avec ses marques sur la lame, cela lui donne du style. Le seul problème, il est passablement dispendieux et ne possède pas de fourreau.

This is the best bread knife I've ever owned. There is a good weight to it. It feels solid. It slices bread beautifully. It looks nice as well. I like the feel of the handle even though I am left handed
