Kai Shun Nagare Black Bread Knife 23cm
The Bread Knife is designed for effortlessly slicing through crusty loaves while preserving the soft texture inside. Its long serrated blade glides cleanly through bread, making it ideal for artisan loaves, baguettes, sourdough, cakes, and delicate pastries without tearing or crushing.
With the Shun Nagare Series, KAI presents a remarkable achievement in modern Japanese blacksmithing. Crafted through an advanced forging process, the blade combines two complementary steels - resilient VG2 and an exceptionally hard VG10 core - bonded together into a striking 72-layer Damascus construction. With a hardness of 61 (±1) HRC, the double-bevelled blade offers outstanding sharpness, excellent edge retention, and refined cutting performance.
The highly polished blade is adorned with a distinctive radial Damascus pattern, creating a dynamic visual flow across the steel. Paired with a mottled grey-black Pakkawood handle, the knife achieves a bold yet sophisticated aesthetic that reflects its luxury positioning.
Designed for both left- and right-handed users, the ergonomically shaped handle provides balance, comfort, and confident control during extended use.
