This Japanese chef’s knife is shaped using traditional metalworking techniques, balancing precision, strength, and refined control. Its form supports deliberate, confident cutting, making it a versatile and reliable tool for everyday kitchen work.
The 8.0-inch (20.4 cm) blade is forged from layered Damascus steel, providing resilient structure and consistent edge retention. The flowing pattern across the blade reflects its careful construction while supporting smooth slicing of vegetables, meat, and other ingredients.
With a total length of 13.1 inches (33.2 cm), the knife offers a balanced medium-to-large profile suited to a wide range of cutting tasks. The 5.5-inch (14 cm) handle is designed to provide a comfortable, secure grip for most hand sizes, promoting control and reducing fatigue during extended use.
Evenly weighted for fluid, controlled movement, this knife is intended for daily cooking. Built for lasting performance, it maintains a quiet presence in the kitchen—its craftsmanship meant to be appreciated over time.
