These are some of the finest blades we have ever made at Kikuichi. With a 67-layer, hand-hammered mirror finish they sparkle on the wall and in the hand. The lighter than average blades make your cooking prep an absolute pleasure. The Octagonal Ho-wood Magnolia handle is made by traditional handle craftsmen and recalls the old style with its water buffalo ferrule, while the AUS10 core steel is a modern material made to withstand even the longest mise en place.
This will quickly become your new favorite knife to use and display in your kitchen.
