Kai Japanese Knives
Kai Shun Steel Japaneses Bread Knife (MH-0705)
The Kai Shun Steel Japanese Bread Knife has a 9.0”/22.5cm blade with a 12.2cm handle, and is made specifically to slice bread.
This Japanese Bread Knife has a patented scalloped edge which means from the centre of the blade, the scallops are slighlty slanted to the outside in opposing directions. This is very practical as it cuts with every move rather than tearing and reduces the amount of crumbs significantly.
All Kai Shun Steel Japanese Knives have a ‘chestnut’ shaped handle which has been ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand. The handles have been made from damask steel.
This knife is made up of 32 layers of damask stainless steel which gives the unique and Damascus effect and has an inner layer of V-gold-10 steel. The steel is made up of 1.0% carbon, 1.5% cobalt and 61 ± 1 HRC, and so is exceptionally hard and highly resistant to corrosion.
The Kai Shun Steel Japanese Bread Knife is very well-balanced, and has a lasting unrivalled sharpness, so your knife will cut smoothly and effortlessly through even the toughest of foods.
