## Summary description

KAI Shun TDM-1705 bread knife with a 23 cm blade, supplied as a single piece. Designed for slicing loaves, baguettes and other baked goods, it provides precise, even cuts and reduces crushing. Suitable for home and professional kitchens, its length and serrated edge make it practical for everyday bread preparation and presentation.

## Long description

The KAI Shun TDM-1705 bread knife from the Shun Premier Tim Mälzer Series combines a hard VG-MAX steel core with 32 layers of Damascus steel and a hammered Tsuchime finish to deliver a sharp, durable blade designed for professional use. The 23 cm serrated blade and medium-brown pakkawood handle with a continuous tang offer balance, stability and suitability for both left- and right-handed users. The handle is engraved with Tim Mälzer's bull's head as a distinctive detail.
Advantages
The VG-MAX steel core wrapped in 32 layers of Damascus provides a balance of hardness and flexibility, ensuring long-lasting edge retention and precision cutting. The Tsuchime hammered surface reduces sticking by creating small air pockets along the blade. The serrated 23 cm blade is lightweight for easier handling, and the symmetrical pakkawood handle with a full tang gives stability and ambidextrous comfort.
Suitable for
Slicing crusty loaves and artisan bread
Cutting soft breads without crushing
Portioning filled or layered baked goods

How to use
Hold the knife by the pakkawood handle with a comfortable grip and use a gentle sawing motion along the bread to let the serrated edge do the work. Apply minimal downward pressure to avoid crushing softer loaves; for very hard crusts begin with a shallow sawing action to score the crust, then increase the length of each stroke. The blade’s design helps release slices cleanly thanks to the hammered Tsuchime texture.
Usage recommendations
Hand wash and dry the knife immediately after use to preserve the Damascus finish and pakkawood handle. Store the knife in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge. Do not use the bread knife for cutting bones, frozen foods or other hard objects to avoid damaging the serrated edge.
