8.5” Kiritsuke Damascus and Richlite

[Joshua Fisher]

*Update* freshened up the etch on this piece to give it a bit more contrast.

The 8.5” chef knife is inspired by a Japanese Kiritsuke, this is the knife chosen by executive chefs in Japan for many tasks. The longer cutting edge makes this an excellent choice in the kitchen especially when you want to maximize efficiency, the flatter edge profile is designed for push cuts or long slicing draw cuts giving the user ultimate control over each cut.

Made from Baker Forge steel, this Chef knife features 1084+15n20 Damascus for the cladding and core with a bold layer of nickel and copper between them. This creates a completely unique look while remaining a very functional tool.

The handle is Maroon Richlite, this is an industrial handle material made from recycled paper and a high grade resin. Ships in a padded zipper case.
