Kiritsuke Chef Knife Damascus Steel With Resin Handle 8.5 Inch

This 8.5-inch Kiritsuke kitchen knife merges traditional Japanese blade geometry with modern multi-layer construction to deliver precise control and enduring sharpness. Designed as a streamlined chef tool, it efficiently transitions from delicate herb work to broad vegetable and protein prep without requiring multiple instruments.

• Damascus Steel Composition: Features a VG10 core surrounded by 33 layers of high-carbon stainless steel on each side, yielding 67 total layers for enhanced edge stability and wear resistance.
• Kiritsuke Spear Point: The 8.5-inch blade offers a flat working spine and tapered tip, providing optimal reach and maneuverability for precise slicing and controlled pushing cuts.
• High-Hardness Edge Geometry: Ground to a less than 13-degree angle on one side with an HRC 62 rating to achieve aggressive cutting angles that stay focused through heavy use.
• Mirror-Polished Blade Surface: Smooths the cutting face to reduce friction against ingredients, preventing clinging and promoting clean separation through dense roots, fruits, and proteins.
• Neutral Balance Design: Weigh distribution centers smoothly between the bolster and grip to maintain steady control and lower wrist fatigue during repetitive chopping motions.
• Sapphire Blue Resin Handle: Constructed from dense, color-infused synthetic material with a hand-polished exterior that resists moisture absorption and maintains a secure hold in wet environments.
• Multi-Task Kitchen Utility: Executes clean trimming on raw fish and poultry, swift dicing of aromatics, and precise portioning of seasonal produce within a single adaptable blade.

A precisely weighted profile paired with a moisture-resistant resin grip allows you to transition between tasks without adjusting your stance or losing leverage. The polished steel surface releases chopped ingredients predictably, keeping your workspace consistent and your cooking rhythm steady from initial prepping to final plating.
