## Description

The Shun Kanso 9-inch Bread Knife is a specialized bread cutting knife designed for precision and durability. This serrated bread knife features wide, undulated serrations that gently glide through bread, pastries and cakes without crushing or tearing. Made with AUS10A high-carbon stainless steel reinforced with vanadium and an angled, tagayasan wood handle, this serrated knife is strong, durable and precise. The butt of the knife is designed to function as a bottle opener and allows for easy hanging on knife hooks. Supported by free honing. Handcrafted in Japan, the Shun Kanso Bread Knife adds essential simplicity to any cooking knife collection.

Review: Glides Through Bread Like It’s Not Even There - This Shun bread knife is seriously impressive. It cuts through bread so smoothly it barely feels like there's anything there. No tearing, no crumbs, just clean slices every time. I’ve been using it regularly for a few months and it’s still just as sharp as when I first took it out of the box. It feels good in the hand and makes cutting bread way easier than it has any right to be. If you enjoy fresh bread and want a knife that actually keeps up, this is the one to get.
Review: Not just for Bread - This is a very good knife, and not just for bread. It glides through proteins like butter. Very economical if you were ever considering getting the brisket one, as I doubt it does better, except perhaps for super thin slicing.

## Features

- SERRATED BREAD KNIFE: The Shun Kanso 9-inch Bread Knife is expertly designed for cutting bread with ease. Wide teeth slice through tender and crusty bread alike with no ripping, squashing or tearing.
- ESSENTIAL SIMPLICITY: Named after a design principle influenced by Zen philosophy, the Kanso series reflects its definition, “simplicity.” Created with the most essential elements, this Kanso knife delivers effortless performance.
- REFINED SHARPNESS: Crafted from AUS10A high-carbon stainless steel refined with vanadium, this knife delivers razor-sharp precision with a 16-degree edge.
- DURABLE HANDLE: Made with contoured tagayasan, known as “iron sword wood,” this full-tang handle offers a comfortable and secure grip for both left and right-handed users. The butt also functions as a bottle opener and hanging hook.
- JAPANESE CRAFTSMANSHIP: Each Shun knife is meticulously handcrafted in Japan, reflecting a legacy of traditional knife-making expertise and a dedication to superior quality. Supported by free honing.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes Shun worth the upgrade?**
A: Shun knives are handcrafted in Japan with premium steel such as VG-MAX. Extra sharp out of the box, they stay sharp longer and deliver unmatched precision. Shun knives are more than a tool, they’re a lifelong cooking experience.

**Q: How should I care for my Shun knife?**
A: Always hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Never put your Shun knife in the dishwasher. Use a soft wood cutting board like Hinoki to protect your knife edge when cutting. Do not use Shun for chopping through bone or frozen ingredients.

**Q: What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?**
A: Use a locomotive motion when cutting - move the blade forward or back instead of pressing straight down. This lets the blade do the work, reduces fatigue, and helps keep your Shun in top condition.

**Q: How often should I sharpen my knife?**
A: Notice your Shun losing its edge? Hone weekly to re-align the blade. If honing no longer works, send it in for free sharpening or follow our online tutorials to hone and sharpen at home.

**Q: What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?**
A: Say 'Shoon' (rhymes with moon). Shun is the Japanese concept of enjoying food at its peak. We honor this tradition by crafting fine cutlery that’s always at the peak of its perfection.

This is a very good knife, and not just for bread. It glides through proteins like butter. Very economical if you were ever considering getting the brisket one, as I doubt it does better, except perhaps for super thin slicing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality and sharpness
*by D***N on June 26, 2025*

I own all the Kanso collection, and this is a beautiful bread knife. I like that they are more western than the other Shun collections, and are more durable in use. I wish I owned these in culinary school!
