This 8.5 inch kiritsuke knife is constructed with a core of AUS-10 premium high carbon steel. The blade is wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus steel, which creates a striking visual pattern while providing structural support to the hard inner core. This combination allows for a very sharp edge that holds up well under frequent use.
The handle is made from G10, a high-pressure fiberglass laminate that is known for being nearly indestructible. It is resistant to moisture and heat, making it an ideal choice for a busy kitchen environment. The ergonomic design ensures that the knife feels balanced in the hand, allowing for precise control during intricate cutting tasks.
As a kiritsuke, this blade features a clipped point that is excellent for fine tip work and slicing fish or vegetables. The flat profile of the edge is well-suited for push-cutting and chopping. This tool is intended for those who want a professional-grade Japanese knife that combines traditional blade geometry with highly durable modern handle materials.
