With a striking silhouette and powerful cutting capabilities, this blade is tailored for versatility in professional kitchens yet approachable enough for passionate home chefs.

Forged from 67 layers of proprietary X-7 Damascus steel, the long, narrow Kiritsuke blade delivers razor-sharp performance with a Rockwell hardness rating of 60–62 HRC.

The full-tang handle is made from rich African blackwood, providing a natural, comfortable grip and exceptional durability. With its sleek lines and polished feel, the handle not only enhances control but also adds a timeless, elegant look to the knife. It’s well-balanced and robust, designed to stand up to the rigors of everyday prep work while retaining its refined appearance. It's 7" overall. 

To protect this impressive blade, each knife comes with a dark walnut magnetic sheath. The wood cover fits securely, preserving the sharp edge while allowing for safe storage between uses. Every element of this knife, from steel to handle to sheath, is crafted with attention to detail and a commitment to excellence.
