KYOKU 8 Inch Chef Knife - Daimyo Series - Professional Chef's Knife

Inspired by the honor and integrity of Japanese master bladesmiths, Kyoku's mission is to make high-end Japanese cutlery affordable for pro chefs and home cooks worldwide. Driven by a passion for culinary creativity, the brand keeps innovating in the realm of handcrafted cutlery.

The Shogun Koi series is a testament to Kyoku's commitment. After the samurai declined in 1868, Japanese swordsmiths applied their skills to cutlery with unprecedented innovation. Kyoku was inspired by this legacy of excellence.

The KYOKU Kitchen Knife Set with Block, Shogun Series, Samurai Series, Daimyo Series, and Shogun Gin Series are all available in the store, catering to diverse culinary needs.

At the core of Kyoku's offerings is superior performance. The scalpel-like edge of their knives effortlessly cuts through meats, fruits, and vegetables, providing the ultimate satisfaction of smooth and precise cutting, chopping, mincing, and dicing.

Maintaining these high-quality knives is easy. By washing them with warm soapy water and wiping them clean with a non-abrasive cloth, users can effectively preserve their quality and extend their lifespan. Honing the blade at a 20-degree angle against a steady rod also keeps the sharpness intact.

Kyoku's knives boast a user-friendly design. The carefully constructed rosewood handles withstand cold, heat, corrosion, and moisture, while the provided sheaths and cases allow for proper storage and cleanliness. The meticulous craftsmanship ensures perfect weight distribution and balance, preventing fatigue and cramps even during extended use.

The brand's commitment to excellence is further reflected in the technical specifications. Kyoku's knives feature a 13-15 degree edge angle, Japanese 440C stainless steel with 59-60 Rockwell hardness, and a lifetime warranty.

Customers have enthusiastically embraced Kyoku's offerings, as evidenced by the stellar reviews across the Daimyo Series line. The 8" Chef Knife, 4.5" Paring Knife, 6.5" Boning Knife, 7" Nakiri Knife, 7" Santoku Knife, 7" Cleaver, and 10" Bread Knife have all garnered praise for their exceptional performance, durability, and value.

Kyoku's dedication to merging traditional craftsmanship with modern technology has resulted in a line of kitchen knives that cater to both professional chefs and home cooks. By making high-quality Japanese cutlery accessible, Kyoku empowers culinary enthusiasts to elevate their cooking experience and unleash their creative potential in the kitchen.
