Product Details

Whale Type E has the longest, slimmest body in the series, with a small fin near the tail and a pointed blade with a gently curved edge for slicing and general utility work. Like the rest of the Kujira range, it is a single piece of black-forged kurouchi steel with a wave pattern on the body and a White Steel #2 (Shiroko) core.

The Kujira knife is the perfect camping companion, allowing you to whittle the day away on the back porch. Whether you're slicing off a hunk of cheese at a picnic, paring fruit, or handling small tasks in the kitchen, the Kujira Knife shines with its superior edge retention. This versatile utility knife is excellent for outdoor use and can easily function as a simple woodworking tool, capable of even sharpening a pencil. While carbon steel knives are not stainless, they can provide years of enjoyment with proper care.

With total dimensions of 6.25 inches x 1.5 inches x 0.12 inches and a blade length of 2 inches, the Kujira Whale Knife masterfully combines charm and functionality, making it an essential addition to any knife collection.
