Kyoku 8.5 Kiritsuke Japanese Chef Knife, Shogun Koi Series

From the brand, KYOKU introduces its latest release - the Shogun Koi series, which showcases the brand's commitment to offering high-quality Japanese cutlery at an affordable price for professional chefs and home cooks worldwide.

After the decline of the samurai in 1868, Japanese swordsmiths applied their unparalleled skills to the realm of culinary tools, leading to unprecedented innovation in the field of cutlery. Inspired by the honor and integrity of these master bladesmiths, Kyoku set out on a mission to make these exquisite Japanese knives accessible to all.

Kyoku's passion for culinary creativity has kept them at the forefront of handcrafted cutlery, with their Shogun Koi series, Samurai series, Daimyo series, and Shogun Gin series catering to the needs of discerning customers.

The Shogun Koi 8.5" Chef's Knife, part of the Shogun Koi series, is designed to handle a wide range of kitchen tasks, from mincing and chopping to dicing and slicing. Its full-tang construction and camphorwood handle ensure dependable performance for daily use.

Featuring a unique koi scale pattern, this Japanese chef's knife not only captivates with its visual charm but also enhances the slicing and dicing experience by preventing food from sticking to the blade. Crafted from Japanese VG-10 stainless steel with a Rockwell Hardness of 58-60 HRC, the razor-sharp blade is precisely honed to an angle of 16-20 degrees, ensuring exceptional corrosion resistance and long-lasting performance.

Kyoku's commitment to quality is further evident in the custom-made wooden gift box and leather sheath that accompany the chef's knife, keeping it in pristine condition and making it an excellent gift for the aspiring chefs in your life. Moreover, the Shogun Koi series comes with a lifetime warranty and Kyoku's dependable 24/7 customer service, providing customers with the assurance of a reliable and supportive experience.

In addition to the 8.5" Chef's Knife, Kyoku offers a comprehensive collection of knives, including the 3.5" Paring Knife, 6" Utility Knife, 6" Boning Knife, 7" Nakiri Knife, 7" Santoku Knife, and 7" Cleaver Knife, all crafted with the same attention to detail and commitment to excellence.

With a strong focus on customer satisfaction, Kyoku has maintained an impressive 4.4-out-of-5-star rating across its product reviews, reflecting the brand's dedication to delivering exceptional quality and value to its customers.
