The Japanese chef’s knife, initially used on meats only. However this style is a great all rounder for quick chopping of not only meats but vegetables, herbs and fish too. The shape of the blade resembles that more of a traditional western chefs knife. A beautiful range of multi-layered hand crafted knives made by Shigeki Tanaka. The central cutting core of VG10 steel is surrounded by 32 layers of stainless steel. These knives have a Rockwell hardness of 60 and have black pakka wood handles.

All Kin Knives come with a lifetime guarantee as long as they are treated correctly in accordance with our care instructions.
