Single Edged - Kiritsuke (Multi-Purpose Knife)
A traditional chef knife that combines vegetable prep and fish slicing in one versatile blade.
The single-bevel kiritsuke combines the flat edge of an usuba with the length of a yanagi, finished with a distinctive angled tip. Because it takes real skill to use well, the kiritsuke has traditionally been associated with the head chef of a Japanese kitchen.
Our single-edged kiritsuke knives are forged in high-carbon White Steel, Blue Steel and Suminagashi Damascus, as well as stain-resistant SVG-10. For a double-bevel version that is easier to use, see our double-edged kiritsuke knives.
