The Tsunehisa Nami line is built with gorgeous polished Damascus blades and solid oak handles. AUS10 stainless steel, similar in character to AEB-L, is genuinely excellent steel for kitchen knives.
This 240mm kiritsuke is a versatile blade, handling slicing, push and pull cutting, and a wide range of other kitchen tasks with ease. The flat profile transitions from a nicely flat spot at the heel into a subtle belly, finished with a finely crafted tip suited to all styles of cutting. The Damascus cladding is genuinely stunning - the high polish and bold pattern, combined with the octagonal oak handle, make this knife stand out anywhere it goes.
Care Instructions: AUS10 is a stainless steel - low maintenance and resistant to corrosion. Hand wash and dry after each use. Avoid the dishwasher, bones, frozen foods, and hard materials. Sharpen on quality water stones and strop regularly between full sharpenings.
