Kanetsugu Zuiun Kiwami Kiritsuke 18 cm
The Kanetsugu Zuiun Kiwami Kiritsuke 18 cm Knife is a versatile kitchen tool that combines the features of a chef's knife and a yanagiba. Its aggressively angled blade allows for precise chopping, slicing, and push-cut cutting. SPG2 powder steel, enriched with 62 layers of Damascus steel, ensures excellent sharpness and durability. The DLC coating reduces friction, which translates into ease of cutting and longer lifespan.
The ergonomic Pakka wood handle, shaped like a heptagon, guarantees stability and comfort during use. Thanks to its light weight and optimal length of 18 cm, the Kiritsuke knife is suitable for both professional kitchens and home use. The Hamaguriha grind strengthens the blade and prevents a chipped edge.
It is an excellent choice for those looking for a knife with an elegant design and unmatched functionality.
