KIRITSUKE KNIFE

At its core, the blade of Kaname knives is made of extra-hard VG Xeos steel with a hardness of 60-62 (±1) HRC, which is enclosed by 2 layers of stainless steel. This unique manufacturing method creates a fine edge with long-lasting sharpness that ensures smooth and precise cuts.

We gathered information from kitchen professionals and consumers to give the best possible shape to the handle. The result is a detailed handcrafted black pakkawood handle, one-piece as the bolster. Its octagonal, ergonomic shape offers control when cutting as the knife sits securely and comfortably in the hand.
