Shun – DM0705 – Classic 9″ Bread Knife – VG-Max Satin – Pakkawood – Black

The Shun Classic 9″ Bread Knife (Model DM0705) is a precision-crafted culinary tool designed to elevate every slice you make—especially when it comes to artisan breads, crusty loaves, and delicate pastries. Whether you’re slicing through a crusty sourdough boule or a soft brioche, the wide, low-frequency serrations on this razor-sharp blade make clean, effortless cuts without crushing or tearing the tender interior. Crafted in Japan by master artisans, the DM0705 features Shun’s proprietary VG-MAX cutting core—renowned for its exceptional wear resistance, fine-grained composition, and ability to hold a razor-sharp edge longer than most Western-style knives. This core is encased in 68 layers (34 per side) of Damascus stainless steel, providing superior corrosion resistance while creating the elegant rippling pattern Shun knives are known for. The 16° serrated edge ensures clean performance even on the toughest crusts. The D-shaped handle is constructed from ebony-finished Pakkawood, a durable, water-resistant hardwood infused with resin to prevent bacteria absorption. The ergonomic shape offers comfort and control for both left- and right-handed users, while the full composite tang construction ensures perfect balance without excessive weight—making this bread knife a joy to use, slice after slice. With the DM0705, you can trust every detail to work in harmony—sharpness, balance, design, and materials—making it a standout addition to any kitchen cutlery collection. Backed by Shun’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, this knife is a testament to the beauty and function of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, reimagined for the modern chef.
