Kai Shun Classic White bread knife 23 cm

This Kai Shun Classic White bread knife is, with its 23 cm long blade, perfect as an all-round, serrated knife. Use the bread knife to cut hard and soft breads but also cakes, pies and fruit with a hard skin. This proves that you can use this knife for much more than just to cut bread. A real must-have!

Classic White blade

The KAI knives are made from 32 layers of stainless damast, with a core layer made from VG-MAX steel. This is an extremely corrosion resistant cobalt alloy with a hardness of 61-62 HRC. Each KAI blade gets a special surface treatment, creating the stunning pattern of lines that is so characteristic of damasteel. Each KAI knife is sharpened by hand before it ends up in your kitchen.

Classic White handle

The handles are made from white pakka wood and have a traditional Japanese 'chestnut shape'. It gives these knives excellent ergonomics. Only suited for right-handed use because of the asymmetrical shape of the handle.

Safely store your bread knife

If you put your paring knife in a drawer you run the risk that your knife will come into contact with other steel objects. This is not recommended for the sharpness of your knife. Also, grabbing in a drawer that holds sharp kitchen knives isn't very safe. For that reason you should always use knife guards, an in-drawer or, even better, a good knife magnet or knife block.
