Elevate every bake with the Perfect Edge Cutlery Shiro Hane 9" Bread Knife—a tool built for bakery-caliber precision in the home kitchen. From crust crack to crumb, this knife delivers clean, even slices through crusty loaves, delicate pastries, and dense breads, preserving structure and texture without tearing or crushing.
Engineered for uncompromising performance
At the heart of the Shiro Hane 9" Bread Knife is CTS-BD1N nitrogen-infused steel, chosen for a rare combination of hardness and wear resistance. With a tested hardness of HRC 63, the blade remains sharp through long bread sessions and after weekend bake-a-thons, minimizing micro-dulling that wears down other knives. The result is effortless slicing from the first cut to the last crumb.
Precision geometry that stays sharper longer
The blade features a Bevel (Angle Ratio) Double (5050) edge—a symmetric 50/50 bevel that balances performance on both pushing and pulling motions. This refined geometry produces smooth, controlled slices day in and day out and makes maintenance straightforward, so you spend less time sharpening and more time perfecting your bake.
Comfortable, hygienic control
The White Corian handle combines modern aesthetics with practical, hygienic design. Its non-porous surface is easy to wipe clean and sanitize between uses, while the ergonomic contour provides a confident grip and steady, fatigue-free cutting through crust to crumb. This is a knife you can reach for again and again during long bread-baking sessions without sacrificing comfort or control.
Beyond bread: practical versatility
Although optimized for crusty artisan loaves like sourdough, baguettes, and brioche, the 9" blade also excels at delicate slicing tasks. It handles ripe tomatoes, zucchini, and other dense produce with minimal crushing, turning a single tool into a versatile workhorse for a kitchen that values precise, professional cuts.
Care and longevity you can trust
To preserve edge geometry and corrosion resistance, hand wash and dry promptly after use. Regular honing keeps the blade aligned for peak performance, and periodic professional sharpening refreshes the factory geometry for years of dependable service. Avoid prolonged dishwasher exposure to protect both the blade and handle.
