The result is a blade of exceptional hardness (61 HRC) and striking visual beauty, with a wave-like Damascus pattern that echoes the rays of the rising sun. The wavy serrations glide through any crust - sourdough, rye, brioche - without compressing or tearing the crumb beneath. The black-grey pakka wood handle is ergonomically shaped with a slight taper and small belly, secured with two rivets and a forged tang for perfect balance. Delivered in a wooden gift box with a certificate of authenticity - a knife to own, display, and pass down.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand wash only, never dishwasher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry immediately after washing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not hone - serrated edges do not require honing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSharpen with a professional sharpening service when needed - serrated edges require specialist equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in the wooden gift box or on a magnetic strip to protect the blade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Chef \u0026 a knife","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53615580348707,"sku":"NDC0705","price":263.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/1819\/3230\/files\/Screenshot2025-05-05at10.10.35AM.png?v=1746403960","url":"https:\/\/chefandaknife.com.au\/products\/shun-nagare-serrated-bread-knife-229mm","provider":"Chef \u0026 a knife","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
