Forged from premium VG-10 Damascus steel and hardened to 60 HRC, this blade delivers razor-sharp precision and edge retention that chefs dream about. At 270g, its weight provides the perfect balance—heavy enough for confident control, yet agile for delicate slicing.

Finished with a striking resin handle that feels as good as it looks, this Kiritsuke is a true statement piece for any kitchen—stylish, sharp, and built to perform like a pro.

Wash, Don’t Soak: Give your knife a quick hand wash and towel-dry right away. No spa days in the sink!

Be Gentle: Skip the scratchy sponges. Treat your blade like it’s wearing a tailored suit.

Home Sweet Home: Store safely in a block, magnetic strip, or sheath. No loose-drawer parties.

Choose the Right Dance Floor: Cut on soft boards (wood or plastic). Metal, glass, or bamboo? Too rough on your edge.

Keep It in Tune: Regular honing = smooth performance. Think of it like tuning a guitar.

Sharpen the Smart Way: Whetstone, steel, or handheld sharpener — whatever your style, keep that edge ready to rock.
