About this product

Shun Dual Core Kiritsuke is an 8-inch Japanese chef's knife designed for precision and versatility in the kitchen. Its high-carbon, high-chromium VG10 and VG2 stainless steel blades feature 71 alternating micro-layers, delivering a razor-sharp 16° edge on each side for clean cuts through vegetables, boneless proteins, and cooked meats. The straighter edge supports push cuts and slicing with control. The traditional octagon-shaped handle, crafted from ebony-finished Pakkawood, offers a secure, comfortable grip. A rabbet tang balances weight and enhances maneuverability, echoing samurai sword construction. Handcrafted in Japan, it comes with a protective wooden saya (sheath).
