Description

Kiritsuke Knife

The Kiritsuke knife is one of the few versatile (general-purpose) knives in Japan. It is primarily designed for filleting fish and cutting vegetables, but its shape makes it suitable for many different uses.

Blade Material

The blade is made of X50 Cr MoV 15, a widely used steel that is used in many kitchen knives. Its composition includes about 0.5% carbon (X50), which provides hardness to the knife's edge, and about 15% chromium (Cr), which provides resistance to corrosion.

In addition, it contains a small percentage of molybdenum (Mo) and vanadium (V), which provide improved wear resistance and edge retention.

Overall, this steel composition provides a knife with a hard but flexible blade, resistant to corrosion and capable of maintaining a sharp and durable edge for a long period of time.

Handle

The handle is made of high-pressure fiberglass, G-10 and is a material with high strength, corrosion resistance, non-slip and heat resistance. It also provides good shock absorption, helping to reduce user fatigue when using the knife. G-10 knife handles are also lightweight and easy to process.

Cutting Surface

Cuts are recommended to be made on wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Glass, stone, and marble cutting surfaces are unsuitable as they can cause permanent damage to the knife blades.

Cleaning

Wash the knife with warm water before using it for the first time. After each use, make sure to wash the knife immediately (with a mild detergent) and dry it with a soft cloth. Especially if you have cut acidic foods, you should wash the knife immediately after use.

For your own safety, you should always wipe the knife away from your body and away from its edge, using a cloth or towel.

It is not recommended to wash it in the dishwasher but by hand, in order to protect its material and maintain its sharpness for a long time.

Sharpening

No matter how sharp a knife is at first, after some use it needs sharpening, something that you can achieve with a sharpener, sharpening stone, or strop.

You can tell if your knife cuts well with an easy test using the knife and a piece of paper. A sharp knife can easily and cleanly cut through a piece of paper. On the other hand, a knife that needs sharpening will struggle and its cutting will be rough.

It is also advisable to sharpen your knives with a professional occasionally, to fix any damage to the blade's edge and to maintain sharpness.

    This review is about a variation of the product

    The Kiritsuke knife is more beautiful than its sibling, the Kiro Mosu chef's knife. And this one looks more expensive than it actually is. Mine also came very well sharpened. The shape of its blade, which carries elements from the samurai tradition, predisposes you to use it constantly and impresses those around you whether they see it on a magnetic base or in action.

    I am quite into cooking at home, so I was looking to find something good and affordable in a Japanese style, which is basically the kiritsuke. Compared to other competitors I found on the market, this one had half the price and I saw that the company is Japanese, so I bought it. I didn't do any tricks with A4 papers and cutting, it's not my thing! This one also comes with the wooden case, which is extra and you can protect it when you finish cooking. Plus, it is beautiful and matches well with the rest I have! After the first week of daily use, I sharpened it with a whetstone and it was like new again. From me, if you are looking for something Japanese style at a low cost, that holds up and cuts well, don't think too much, buy it.

    I bought it for home use. Opening it from the box, I did the test with an A4 page to see how effectively it cuts in order to capture the best possible image before using it for any other cutting. Unfortunately, the blade sharpening was not uniform, as the back surface of the knife appeared well sharpened but as you moved towards the edge of the knife, the cutting became increasingly difficult until the paper tore from the force and not from the blade. I had to sharpen it with a 1000 grit stone to bring it to a satisfactory condition. The length of the knife is quite long and not very convenient for various cuts. I would prefer it to be a bit more compact (18cm). For its price, it is satisfactory, but there are definitely better options at the same price.
