Kiritsuke 245mm SanMai

Rarely do you see authentic Kiritsuke blades forged by western makers. The very low radius of the edge profile of this traditional Japanese profile is designed for the most senior of chefs in the kitchen, perfect for the tasks that are performed by this senior position.

This beautiful piece of work by Dominik Filip of Merion Forge features a 1.2008 core and is clad in mild steel. A stone finished bevel mottled and hazy, that meets the edge in an almost mirror polish. Incredibly sharp!

The stabilised maple and black buffalo horn handle with exposed dowel is a contemporary take on the traditional Japanese octagonal handle. Another exceptional piece of work from Dominik.
