Combining traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern innovation, this premium bread knife brings elegance and efficiency to every bake.

Effortless Slicing Without Crushing

The Shun Premier Bread Knife features a long, ultra-sharp, and uniquely serrated blade. Accordingly it slices cleanly through bread without tearing or compressing.

Crafted from Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX super steel and layered with 34 Damascus stainless steel sheets on each side. The blade offers exceptional strength, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The hand-hammered tsuchime finish reduces friction and prevents food from sticking, allowing for quicker, cleaner slicing with every use.

Elegant, Ergonomic Design

Just like every blade in the Premier series, this Premier Bread Knife features a luxurious walnut-coloured PakkaWood handle, contoured to fit comfortably in your hand. The traditional Japanese-style handle offers a secure, balanced grip that enhances control and reduces fatigue—ideal for both daily use and special occasions.

The Shun Premier blade’s core fashioned from extremely hard VG Max steel and is enveloped in 32 layers of Damascus steel. This combination of different steel grades makes the blade both hard and flexible at once. The double-sided blade is easy to use because it its light weight and guarantees a clean and precise cut. The incorporation of a hammered surface underlies not only aesthetic reasons, but also serves the release of material from the blade thanks to the resulting air pockets.

Thanks to its symmetrical shape, it is suitable for both left- and right-handed users. A continuous tang ensures stability and balance whilst cutting. As a special touch, the handle’s end has been engraved with Tim Mälzer’s bull’s head, the professional chef’s trademark
