The Enso Hizashi 9-inch bread knife showcases a VG-10 steel cutting core, renowned for its ability to hold a razor-sharp edge. Its 37-layer stainless Damascus blades, finished with a hammered (tsuchime) texture, not only look stunning but also enhance food release and reduce sticking. Crafted for both home bakers and professional chefs, this bread knife excels at slicing through crusty loaves with ease.
The single-bevel edge is expertly ground to approximately 12°, making it suitable for right- and left-handed users. The handle combines pakkawood with a stainless steel bolster and engraved end cap, giving a perfect balance of strength, comfort, and style. Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, this knife embodies the precision and artistry that Japanese kitchen knives are known for. Whether you’re slicing sourdough or baguettes, this is the knife for ultimate control and clean cuts.
