A bread knife is often a cook’s third choice after a chef’s knife and a paring knife. Whether one carefully measures flour, salt, water, and yeast to make the perfect sourdough or purchases an artisan loaf from a local bakery, the work that has gone into that bread deserves to be respected with the proper cutting tool. Shun’s Kagerou 9 inch Bread knife is the perfect tool for that job, with a Dual Core edge of razor-sharp serrations to breeze through the thickest crusts as well as gently sawing through the tender crumb without tearing. Chewy bread, pastries and cakes don’t stand any chance against this knife.
