◆ Common Questions

Shopping for Kiritsuke Knives USA

What is a kiritsuke knife?
The kiritsuke is a Japanese chef knife combining the long slicing reach of a gyuto with the K-tip and flatter profile of a bunka. Traditionally considered the knife of a head chef in Japanese kitchens, a symbol of experience in the kitchen.
Kiritsuke vs gyuto: which is better?
Both are all-purpose chef knives. Kiritsuke has an angular K-tip and flatter blade (push-cut style); gyuto has a rounded tip and curved blade (rocking style). Kiritsuke takes more skill to use well due to the pointed tip and flat profile.
What size kiritsuke should I buy?
210mm is the most common size for home kitchens. 240mm suits larger hands and more serious prep volumes. 270mm is pro-chef territory.
Is a kiritsuke good for beginners?
Honestly, not the easiest first knife. The angular tip can be unforgiving, and the long flat edge rewards a steady technique. If this is your first Japanese knife, consider a bunka or santoku first. If you're already comfortable with Japanese knives, a kiritsuke is a joy.
Single-bevel vs double-bevel kiritsuke?
Traditional single-bevel kiritsuke is a specialty knife for Japanese cuisine specialists, hard to use without training. Double-bevel kiritsuke (what most Japanese and Western chefs use today) is the practical all-rounder. Our range is predominantly double-bevel unless specified.
What steel is best for a kiritsuke?
For low-maintenance daily use, SG2 or VG10 stainless. For enthusiast carbon edges, Aogami Super or Blue 2.
