CASE KNIVES
High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Cangshan Blue Series 9" Bread Knife is a bold fusion of form and function—designed to turn everyday slicing into a precise, effortless task. Forged from X-7 Damascus steel, the full-tang blade features a stunning hammered texture that doesn’t just look good—it serves a purpose. The dimpled finish reduces drag and keeps food from clinging to the steel, making every cut clean and smooth. The 67-layer Damascus pattern is a testament to the craftsmanship behind each knife, delivering edge retention and toughness that hold up to regular use.
At 9 inches long, the blade provides ample reach for everything from crusty artisan loaves to oversized melons and dense root vegetables. The saw-like serrations grip and glide through hard exteriors without tearing or smashing delicate interiors. Whether you’re prepping sourdough, slicing bagels, or cutting into a firm-skinned squash, this knife gives you total control from tip to heel.
The handle is just as refined as the blade. Crafted in a traditional octagonal shape, it’s finished in a striking blue and black faux-wood grain pattern that feels solid in hand. A single mosaic rivet holds the handle tight and adds a subtle touch of character. The shape offers a secure, comfortable grip and balances perfectly with the weight of the blade, giving you precision without strain.
To protect the blade, this knife comes with a deep blue wood magnetic Saya-style sheath that hugs the knife for safe storage and adds a premium look on the counter or in the drawer. Built for those who want performance with a touch of elegance, this knife doesn’t just get the job done—it stands out while doing it. Order yours today from SMKW!
