Shun Premier Grey 9-Inch Serrated Bread Knife

Shun Premier Grey 9-Inch Serrated Bread Knife is designed for cutting through bread crusts with a controlled back-and-forth motion. The serrated edge is useful for dividing loaves and rolls while letting the blade travel through the cut rather than pressing down on the crumb.

At a glance

• Serrated bread edge

  The teeth start the cut in a firm crust; light strokes help control the slice through the softer center.

• 9-inch blade

  This 9-inch format helps define the working reach. Match it to your usual ingredients and leave room for the cutting stroke.

• Hammered blade

  The tsuchime finish adds visible texture above Premier Grey’s layered blade pattern.

• Grey Pakkawood

  The contoured, resin-treated wood handle has the grey finish that distinguishes this Premier version.

Find your fit

Choose enough blade length to extend beyond the loaf on each stroke. Use a stable board and guide slice thickness with your supporting hand kept clear of the edge. Read our bread knife guide for practical comparisons.

Care and storage

Wash by hand with mild detergent, then towel-dry the blade and handle before putting the knife away. Keep the edge protected in a suitable block, tray or guard. Have serrations maintained with a method suited to their shape. See our knife-care guide for a practical routine.
