Features

• 67-Layer Damascus SteelThis kiritsuke knife features 67 layers of hand-forged Damascus steel, combining modern metallurgy with traditional craftsmanship. The layered construction creates a distinctive hammered finish that does more than look stunningit naturally reduces food sticking during slicing. This robust structure delivers exceptional durability, long-lasting edge retention, and superior corrosion resistance, outperforming single-layer stainless steel blades that dull and stain over time.
• Razor-Sharp EdgeUnlike mass-produced knives that rely on machine grinding, each blade undergoes a meticulous journey of over 50 hand-crafted processes, from advanced heat treatment and quenching to final hand-honing. The result is an exceptional 602 HRC hardnesshard enough to hold a razor edge through heavy use, yet flexible enough to resist chipping. Whether you're slicing through butternut squash, breaking down a whole fish, or finely mincing herbs, this knife glides with minimal effort.
• Ergonomic Pakkawood HandleThe handle is crafted from Pakkawood, a material prized for its resistance to heat, cold, and moistureunlike natural wood that can crack or absorb bacteria. Secured by three rivets for long-term stability, the ergonomic shape achieves perfect balance with the blade, reducing wrist fatigue during extended prep sessions. This makes it a reliable tool for both professional chefs working long shifts and home cooks who enjoy elaborate meal preparation.
• Protective Self-Standing Ash SheathThis Japanese knife includes a custom-fitted Ash wood sheath, a feature often sold separately with competing Damascus knives. The sheath keeps the razor-sharp edge safely covered when not in use, preventing accidental cuts and protecting the blade from contact with other utensils. Its adjustable design allows the sheath to align with the blade's pattern, enabling the knife to stand upright on your countertopa functional and elegant display solution that keeps your most-used knife within arms reach.
• From Vegetables to Fish with EaseThe kiritsuke shape combines the versatility of a chef's knife with the precision of a slicing blade. The Damascus steel's natural non-stick surface minimizes food residue, so sliced potatoes, carrots, and even sticky fish fillets release cleanly without clinging to the blade.
