The Japanese version of a chef's knife, the kiritsuke excels for precision slicing and cutting of meat and vegetables. This long, deft knife with a clipped tip is also a chef favorite for cleaning and portioning fish. Shun's Premier collection is distinguished by hammered blades that evoke the artistry of traditional hand-forged knives.
- Blade features core of extremely hard VG-MAX "super steel" clad on each side with 34 microthin layers of stainless steel.
- Striking hammered finish (tsuchime in Japanese) reduces drag when cutting and helps to quickly release food from blade.
- Walnut-finish PakkaWood handle has two-position design, providing trigger grip for pull cuts and perfect balance point for pinch grip.
- Each knife is handmade by skilled specialists, requiring at least 100 steps to craft.
