Meglio Knives, handcrafted in Oceanside, CA, uses the finest steels and cutting edge technology. CEO and founder Brandon Hampton has over a decade of experience developing blades for the culinary world and military. Their focus on innovation and sourcing the best materials is evident in every hand-made, quality-controlled item from their facility.
This 6.5" kiritsuke features advanced semi-stainless CD#1 steel, offering impressive durability and edge retention comparable to Magnacut. Unlike more abrasion-resistant steels, CD#1 sharpens more easily and responds well to maintenance, ideal for those who prioritize a keen edge. While it requires drying after use to avoid staining, CD#1 is less susceptible to rust than AEB-L. Applying a wax or conditioner during storage helps maintain its pristine condition.
