The Ji Series 8.5" bread knife is a 67-layer Damascus slicer built to cut, not crush. The long serrated edge saws cleanly through hard crust and soft crumb in a single draw, so a fresh sourdough or a ripe tomato comes off the board in even slices instead of squashed wedges. A 12Cr18MoV core runs through a full ebony tang for balance and reach.

FAQs
Not like a straight edge. You cannot run serrations across a honing rod or a flat whetstone. Each tooth (gullet) is sharpened individually with a tapered rod, or you send the knife out for professional serrated sharpening. The upside is that serrated edges hold for years before they need it.
A chef's knife crushes a crusty loaf because a straight edge skids on hard crust and then compresses the soft crumb. The serrations grip and saw through the crust, so the slice stays its shape.
Yes. It is 67 layers of folded Damascus steel over a 12Cr18MoV cutting core, a genuine layered blade, not an etched pattern.
215mm (8.5 inches), long enough to clear a full sourdough boule or a sandwich loaf in a single draw.
No. Hand wash only and dry it straight away. Dishwasher heat and detergent damage the ebony handle and the Damascus finish.
Solid ebony wood over a full tang, so the steel runs the full length of the grip.
Yes, a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
