The SENKEN Umi 8-inch Bread Knife pairs Japanese VG10 Damascus steel with a genuine abalone shell handle, bringing clean, effortless slicing and the ocean’s captivating beauty to your table.

Its serrated 8-inch blade cuts through crusty artisan loaves, baguettes, and soft sandwich bread while preserving the tender crumb within, giving you even slices without crushing or tearing.

The blade features a Japanese VG10 steel core surrounded by 33 layers of Damascus steel on each side, forming a 67-layer blade with a distinctive flowing pattern. Rated at 62 HRC, it offers exceptional hardness and excellent edge retention for lasting cutting performance.

Full-tang construction provides stability and control for steady slicing, from the first cut to the last.

The genuine abalone shell handle displays iridescent blue, green, and pearlescent tones that shift with the light, giving each handle its own unique beauty. Its smooth, comfortable shape provides a firm grip, while a decorative plum blossom rivet adds a refined finishing detail.

Includes a luxury gift box for presentation and gifting.
