Introducing

Kajibee

Kajibee knives are hand-forged by master blacksmith Kunio Ishikawa and his son. They are located in a quaint, traditional factory in the historic knife making city of Sanjo, Japan. Master Ishikawa prefers to only use traditional Japanese steel such as White, and Blue Paper steels from Hitachi Yasuki Steel. All Kajibee knives are hand-forged in a traditional wood-fired oven and then hand polished. This technique has been passed down from father to son for many hundreds of years.

Blade Type

The Nakiri is a knife primarily for cutting vegetables and herbs. Its flat blade profile allows maximum contact with the cutting board while push cutting, perfect for veg. This is not recommended as a general purpose knife.

Steel Type

White Steel is the purest of the Japanese high -carbon steels made by Hitachi Metals. It can be forged to extremely high hardness, sharpened extremely easily (even for novices), and takes a scalpel like edge with ease. Being this pure and lacking any stainless properties, this steel is very reactive and will rust quickly if not dried after use, and oiled between uses.

Recommended Maintenance

· Store your knife in a dry environment away from leather pouches or any sources of moisture.

· To maintain your Japanese knives’ sharp edge use a
whetstone. Stones are available on our website.

Absolutely A+ service and an economic knife

To no fault of ChefsEdgeAU the knife was lost in the Australian post. ChefsEdge themselves informed me of this before I was even worried and they promptly shipped me a new knife at no extra cost. It arrived soon after and in great condition. The finish on the handle of the knife leaves a bit to be desired. However, considering the price point it is incredible value and the edge was quite sharp out of the box. Looks quite beautiful too.
