This Shun Reserve Bread Knife is a beautiful and functional knife with a serrated blade which can be used for slicing bread and other food that has a hard crust and delicate interior since the serrated edge reduces tearing.
Shun Reserve Knives are Western-style knives made by one of the foremost Japanese cutlery makers using the techniques and traditions of hundreds of years of Japanese knife making. The result gives you the strength and perfectly balanced weight that Western-style knife lovers prefer, combined with the graceful beauty and impeccable performance you would expect from a Japanese knife.
