Shogun Series KYOKU Kiritsuke Chef Knife 8.5

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the 8.5" Kiritsuke chef knife from Kyoku's premier Shogun series blends modern technology and traditional Japanese craftsmanship. This multipurpose blade is designed to be a slicing and push-cut specialist, with its 67-layered stainless Damascus steel construction and stunning herringbone pattern on the base of the tang, showcasing the knife's exquisite craftsmanship and luxurious identity.

Powered by cryogenically-hardened VG-10 steel wrapped between 33 layers of Damascus steel, the Shogun Series represents the apex of modern Japanese cutlery. The blades are treated using the traditional 3-step Honbazuke method, ensuring incredible hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. The hollow-edge design prevents food from sticking to the blade, while the time-honored sword-making techniques result in a thinner, harder, and sharper blade compared to Western knives.

The Kyoku Shogun Series delivers an unparalleled cooking experience, as the brand blends ultramodern technology with ancient craftsmanship to create a scalpel-thin blade edge with powerful non-stick performance. The knife's exclusive appearance is accented by a hammer-beaten wave pattern that gives way to a traditional Damascus steel design, further accentuated by an engraved mosaic pin on the ergonomic fiberglass handle.

Designed for both home chefs and culinary professionals, this Kiritsuke knife offers superior precision and control, with its full-tang construction and perfectly balanced weight distribution. Sharpened to an 8-12 degree edge, the Japanese VG-10 stainless steel blade delivers exceptional cutting performance, superior corrosion resistance, and exceptional edge retention.

Backed by a lifetime warranty and Kyoku's friendly 24/7 customer service, this Shogun-class paring knife is a true testament to the brand's commitment to quality and innovation. Whether you're slicing through meat, fish, or vegetables, the Kyoku Kiritsuke chef knife promises an unparalleled culinary experience.
