Shun Classic Blonde 9" Bread Knife DM0705W

Glides Through Bread, Pastries, and More

The right bread knife does more than slice—it protects what you’ve baked. The Shun Classic Blonde 9" Bread Knife is designed to preserve the shape, texture, and integrity of every loaf. With wide, undulating serrations and a lightweight, balanced feel, it moves through crusty sourdough or soft brioche without tearing or crushing.

Handcrafted in Japan with a stunning blonde Pakkawood handle and Shun’s signature layered steel, this knife isn’t just beautiful—it’s essential. Whether you're slicing bakery-fresh loaves or delicate pastries, this is the knife that delivers clean cuts and confident performance.

What Makes It Exceptional

• Effortless Slicing
  Wide, low-profile serrations glide through crusts without damaging the soft interior.
• Precision Steel Core
  VG-MAX cutting core holds a razor-sharp 16° edge and resists corrosion and dulling, even with daily use.
• Damascus Cladding
  68 layers of stainless steel create a beautiful ripple pattern while reducing drag and preventing sticking.
• Comfortable Blonde Handle
  The D-shaped Pakkawood handle feels natural in your hand and resists moisture and bacteria.
• Balanced for Control
  A full composite tang provides ideal weight distribution so you can slice with precision and ease.
