This is an 8-inch kiritsuke chef's knife with a VG10 stainless steel core clad in 67 layers of Damascus steel, giving it a distinctive patterned blade. It comes with a sheath and a handle that varies in color and design, so each knife is one of a kind. The kiritsuke shape is a hybrid between a chef's knife and a santoku, with a flat profile and a pointed tip, suited to push-cutting and precision work. It competes with other Damascus-clad VG10 knives, offering a more decorative handle and a included sheath, but the unusual handle may not suit those who prefer a traditional look.

This is an 8 inch Japanese-style kiritsuke chef's knife with a Damascus steel blade. The blade has a VG10 high-carbon cutting core wrapped in 67 layers of Damascus steel, which gives it a curling surface pattern. The edge is mirror-finished and hand-sharpened with a V-taper grind, with each side ground at a 9-11 degree angle. The blade is double beveled.
The handle is octagonal and made of G10 stabilized natural wood. It is made with environmentally friendly glue and compressed into a wood block with natural dye colors. Each handle differs in color and design, and the color you receive is random. The blade shape gives knuckle clearance for a closer grip and suits a rocking cutting motion. It can be used for meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, carving, filleting and chopping.
Do not use it on frozen food, or as a butcher's knife or cleaver. Sharpen it with a sharpening stone or diamond steel sharpener, and use it with a chopping board. It comes with a sheath.
