Kiritsuke Chef Knife 190 mm - Densho Collection
CARACTÉRISTIQUES
Rediscover Cooking
Lasting Performance
Ergonomically Engineered
The Kiritsuke can perform versatile functions and is the favorite go-to knife of many Japanese chefs.
In fact, in most fine restaurants only the head chef is allowed to use it, therefore the Kiritsuke is often considered to be a symbol of expertise and status.
The distinct shape of the Kiritsuke is often called Bunka (文化), meaning “culture” in Japanese. The name derives from its traditional use in making cultural cuisine in Japanese homes.
Used for similar tasks as more "classic" knives such as the Gyuto or Santoku, Bunka knives are recognisable from their “reverse Tanto” profile, also called “K-tip”, which makes them more precise than a rounded blade.
