About Kitory Damascus Kiritsuke Chef Knife - 8.5 Inch
Product DetailsMaterial: Use VG10 Super Steel Thickness: 2.5 mmBlade: Extremely sharpHandle: G10 Black handle designed according to ergonomicsFull length: 14 inchProduct Features: The kiritsuke knife is a Japanese style slicing knife that is used mainly for thinly slicing fish, vegetables, and fruit, using push/pull cutting. It is traditionally only used by executive chefs because of its difficulty of use and significance as a symbol of status in the kitchen.How to use a kiritsuke knife?Position your feet. Keep one foot back and to the side a bit to shift your body and allow your arm for better range of motion. The “pinch grip” is used. Take your index finger and thumb to hold the base or bolster of the blade while your other three fingers wrap around the handle.Pull up toward yourself and push down and away from yourself. Not as much of a rocking motion as with other knives, unless the blade of your kiritsuke is curved.Tip of the knife cutting. Japanese chefs tend to use the tip of their knives more than traditional western chefs. The tip of the knife goes down on the board to get very precise, clean slices.Care Tips: The blade edge is extremely sharp. Keep the knife out of reach of children. Please do not touch the knife-edge directly with your hands.As the carbon content of this knife is high, please pay attention to cleaning the knife, and acidic or alkaline substances cannot stay on the blade for a long time.
