The Cangshan Kita Series brings precision and elegance to any kitchen setting. Its full-tang X-7 Damascus steel blade features a hammered texture that not only provides a striking appearance but also facilitates smooth, reliable food release for clean cuts. The durable octagonal handle showcases a refined blue and black faux wood grain design, secured with a single mosaic rivet to ensure optimal balance and strength. This knife includes a deep blue wooden magnetic saya sheath, specifically crafted to protect its distinctive blade. Hand-sharpened from proprietary X-7 steel with a Rockwell hardness of 60 ± 2, it delivers exceptional sharpness and durability.
The 7-inch Kiritsuke Knife blends traditional Japanese craftsmanship with versatile functionality, excelling at swiftly chopping vegetables with precision in a cleaver-like manner and delicately slicing thin cuts of meat, especially fish. Its nearly flat blade edge supports efficient, rapid vertical chopping for vegetable preparation, while the sharply tapered tip allows for smooth, controlled pull-cuts when working with meat.
