Premium 7" Kiritsuke Knife - 18cm

Serving as a fusion of Chef's knife and Nakiri knife, the Kiritsuke knife truly lives up to its all-purpose reputation. Compared to a Chef's knife, its blade has less curve, allowing for various cutting techniques such as pushing the knife forward, pulling backward, rocking, and chopping. 

Additionally, its sharp tip proves especially useful for efficient, detailed work, such as making fine cuts of an onion.

Mindful Cutting

It’s crucial to exercise caution when it comes to cutting hard objects, such as bones, to preserve their pristine edge. To ensure longevity and performance, always use a cutting board and refrain from using them on unforgiving surfaces like metal or stone, as these can lead to blade chipping and a loss of sharpness.
