“Kiritsuke” knifes are an all-purpose knife featured a diagonally cut-off tip. Kiritsuke knives are one of the few multipurpose traditional Japanese blades, and can be used as a slicer or a vegetable knife. These sword shaped knives feature a straighter and wider edge than a yanagi for vegetables, and a longer blade than an usuba for slicing fish with ease. The user needs more skill with traditional Japanese knives in order to utilize this unique kiritsuke style design properly. Traditionally, these knives are used only by the chefs as a symbol of status.

SG2 high carbon stainless steel kitchen knives offer incredible edge retention. Just as the edge retention is satisfactory enough, ease of sharpening makes it even better. Once you equip your kitchen with one, expect to use it for many years, given adequate care methods.Migaki (Polished) line of knives feature beautiful edge geometry and are quite thin behind the edge and at the spine. They have an excellent cutting feel and are light and feel very nimble and comfortable in the hand.Damascus is a laminated steel knife made of several layers of different steel materials. The center of the blade is made of hard steel for sharpness, and both sides are covered with multiple soft steel materials. The multiple steels are metallurgically joined, not by plating or glue. The more the blade is forged, the more complex the ripples become, and the more beautiful the unique grain pattern becomes.

I’ve been happily using a Santoku and Nakiri for the last few years, but wanted something for bigger jobs. Absolutely loving this knife! Beautiful and clearly a workhorse.

This knife is so awesome that it must be the closest thing to cutting with a laser. The cutout for the forefinger is so ergonomic that it makes cutting such a pleasure.
