Kiritsuke
Master precision and versatility in the kitchen with a kiritsuke knife, a traditional Japanese blade favored by professional chefs.
Why Choose a Kiritsuke Knife?
The kiritsuke knife is a hybrid blade that combines the slicing ability of a yanagiba with the versatility of a gyuto. Recognizable by its long, flat edge and angled tip, it’s perfect for tasks such as slicing sashimi, chopping vegetables, and handling fine, detailed cuts.
Key Features of Kiritsuke Knives
Kiritsuke knives typically range from 8 to 12 inches in length, with an extremely sharp, thin edge designed for precision. The flat profile makes it excellent for push-cutting and chopping, while the pointed tip allows for delicate work. Traditionally used by head chefs in Japanese kitchens, this knife is both functional and symbolic of culinary mastery.
