8.5" Kegani Japanese Kiritsuke Chef Knife, Japanese 67 Layers VG-10 Damascus Knife, Japanese Rosewood Full-Tang Handle, Natural Texture

Crafted around a Japanese VG-10 steel core, the 8.5" Kegani Japanese Kiritsuke Chef Knife delivers exceptional sharpness, reliable edge retention, and precise cutting performance. The Japanese rosewood handle provides a strong, comfortable, and secure grip.

Features:

66-Layer Damascus Craftsmanship: 66 layers of stainless steel are forged around the VG-10 core to create a durable, corrosion-resistant blade with a striking Damascus pattern. Vacuum heat treatment brings the blade to up to 62 HRC, helping it maintain a sharp edge through demanding everyday prep.

Full-Tang Japanese Design: The full-tang construction enhances strength, balance, and stability, while the classic octagonal Japanese-style handle fits naturally in your hand for comfortable, controlled cutting.

Versatile Everyday Performance: Designed for precision slicing, chopping, and dicing, this Japanese chef knife handles meat, vegetables, fruits, herbs, and more with ease. Its versatile Gyuto-style profile makes it an excellent all-purpose knife for both home cooks and culinary enthusiasts.

Important: This knife is not designed for chopping bones or cutting extremely hard foods. Avoid heavy impacts to help protect the fine cutting edge.

Care for Lasting Performance: Keep your Damascus knife performing at its best with proper care. Hand-wash with warm water after each use, dry thoroughly with a soft towel, and store safely on a magnetic knife strip or in a knife sheath. Applying a small amount of food-grade mineral oil to the blade periodically can provide additional protection.
