Kiritsuke knife ZEN

An increasingly popular Far Eastern knife shape is the Kiritsuke. Developed as a sushi knife, it can be used in a variety of ways, especially for preparing vegetables. In the Yaxell ZEN Kiritsuke, 18 layers of stainless carbon steel Damascus are forged on both sides of the stainless VG 10 core layer, creating a Damascus look with a total of 37 layers. The part of the blade that runs towards the back of the blade has a brightly polished hammered look that clearly contrasts with the matt lines of the Damascus pattern towards the cutting edge. Robust linen micarta with a wood look is used for the handle. The blade is fixed and secured in the handle with 2 stainless rivets.
