Damascus Series -7.7" KIRITSUKE Chef's Knife

Kiritsuke knives are multipurpose traditional Japanese chef's knives. Kiritsuke knives are a hybrid design combining features of Japanese Usubas and Yanagibas. Usubas are dedicated vegetable knives while Yanagibas are used to slice raw fish for sushi, as a consequence the Kiritsuke is intended as a general purpose knife for use in preparing traditional Japanese cuisine. These sword shaped knives feature a straighter edge than a Yanagiba that is used for vegetables, and a longer blade than an Usuba knife that is used for slicing fish with ease.  Made from 67-layer Damascus Steel imported from Japan.
