Like the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/gyuto-chefs-knives-c36\"\u003echef's knife\u003c\/a\u003e, the kiritsuke knife is versatile and lets you cut, chop, chisel and mince a variety of foods. Its pointed blade notably resembles a traditional Japanese sword once used by the samurai.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAn ultra-sharp blade\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eSan Maï\u003c\/strong\u003e blade is made up of 3 layers of steel that alternate around the core. At the center, the core is made of Japanese Ginsan steel with a \u003cstrong\u003ecarbon content of 0.95%\u003c\/strong\u003e, which hardens and stiffens the wire for a long-lasting cutting edge. This core is then wrapped in a layer of stainless steel, adding extra protection and suppleness. The difference between the steels is visible at the bottom of the blade thanks to a small wave. The hardness reaches \u003cstrong\u003e60 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e on the Rockwell scale, so the blade stays easy to sharpen while holding its edge well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA good grip\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003eenju wood\u003c\/strong\u003e, a lovely light-colored species native to Asia. The wood is sturdy yet stays light for a good grip on the knife. The handle has a pleasant, slightly glossy finish. The wood grain is also unique to every piece. The handle is octagonal in shape, suiting right- and left-handed cooks alike! Finally, wood filler has been injected between the handle and the blade, making the whole thing perfectly watertight and hygienic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA handcrafted piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an understated design and a fairly simple blade, this knife is no less extremely effective for it. The brand's logo on the front and discreet kanji on the back of the blade have been finely engraved for added authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWash your knife by hand, taking care not to run too much water over the handle, then use a soft cloth to dry it before storing it.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/1141\/1030\/files\/KIRITSUKE_2024CM_dc9eaef6-fc06-4c16-bffe-bf2287871435.png\" alt=\"Couteau kiritsuke japonais 24cm Migaki G3\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWusaki's effectiveness in your hands\u003c\/h4\u003e","brand":"Couteaux du Chef","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51978955915606,"sku":"HLWWUS-SHI-8509","price":269.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/1141\/1030\/files\/67158.jpg?v=1788871419","url":"https:\/\/www.wusaki.com\/en\/products\/migaki-g3-handcrafted-japanese-kiritsuke-knife-24cm-p175","provider":"Wusaki","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
