Classic Knife Offset Bread Knive, 8.25", Black

Klasse Messer das bei der Benutzung richtig viel Spass macht. Tolle Haptik und Verarbeitung, liegt gut in der Hand (Rechtshänder) und ist nicht zu schwer aber auch nicht zu leicht, sehr ausgewogen. Habe es direkt mit dem Markenbrotmesser verglichen das ich vorher eigesetzt habe. Einmal vor und einmal zurück und die Scheibe ist abgeschnitten. Gerade bei Weissbrot merkt man sofort es auch deutlich weniger Krümel gibt als mit klassischen Messern. Die Kai Shun Messer sind ihr Geld wert.

Great bread knife. It slices through the toughest of crusts with ease. I will never own another bread knife after this one.

a superb knife to match my set.

I have many high end knives, including 5 or 6 Shun. This knife isn't necessarily the best knife I have, as it is just a Shun; but it is hands down the knife that impressed me most....meaning; I generally know what to expect from my knives when I purchase them and am not surprised one way or another once I finally have it at home. This one is an exception. I would never have guessed that any bread knife would perform so well, let alone a Shun (Not that Shun knives are bad....just not top of the line. I was able to cut the fresh baguette as thin as I could place my fingers and still hold the bread. None of my other knives can do that.

Shun make great kitchen knives. Two features that I love about this bread knife are the offset handle which makes cutting so easy without your hand hitting the board and the convex serrations slice cleanly without any crumbs. Very high quality, extremely sharp and I use it for much more than bread. Also, the handle on all the Shun Classic series knives have a D-shaped design which fits my hand better than others.
