Kai Shun Kagerou Bread Knife 23cm
The Shun Kagerou Bread Knife is designed specifically to tackle bread. Its sharp, serrated blade cuts through the softest (and hardest) breads with ease and without crushing.
The dual-core blades in this series are forged using an innovative process that combines two types of steel to create a single blade with 71 layers. This results in a blend of flexible VG2 steel and extremely hard VG10 steel, which provides the blades with long-lasting edge retention and exceptional sharpness. This makes cutting ingredients effortless and ensures that food releases easily from the blade.
The grey-marbled Pakkawood handles are treated with select resins, making them extremely smooth, resilient, moisture-resistant and durable. The handle's special, symmetrical design allows for excellent handling and supports the knife's stability during use. Thanks to the seamless transition of the bolster and forged end cap, the knives are ideally counterbalanced for optimal cutting performance.
