Ryusen Gurenhiryu Kai Knife Set
Ryusen Gurenhiryu Kai Knife Set
Ryusen Hamono was founded in 1948 as a knife sharpening company. They worked with companies like Takefu Special Steel as early as the 1970s to develop high-quality knives made with stainless steel, at a time when most other knife makers were struggling to produce decent stainless steel knives. Now, they have expanded their collection of knives not only having sharpness and longevity in mind but with a sleek modern design.
The Gurenhiryu (Crimson Dragon) series is the pinnacle of high-end Japanese knife design. The blade is forged from super-hard SPG STRIX stainless steel, known for superior edge-retention and laser-sharpness. The stabilized red poplar handle is the crown jewel on the 63-layer damascus masterpiece.
Set contains
This is the knife for smaller jobs that are done on a cutting board. Perfect for slicing shallots, cutting herbs, and boning smaller proteins. Additionally, Petty knives are an indispensable tool for those who feel uncomfortable wielding a larger chef knife.
Much like a Bunka, the Kiritsuke is a more bad-ass chef's knife of sorts. They combine the flat, sliding edge of a Nakiri perfectly with the length and slight curvature of a traditional chef's knife. The added steel at the tip allows them to cut more effectively, with less effort on your part.
Underutilized in the western kitchen, the nakiri’s flat blade is meant for the push/pull chopping of vegetables. Since the entire flat edge of the knife touches the cutting board at once, you won't be turning the vegetable into an 'accordion', pieces that are still connected by a thread after you've cut them. The added weight of the blade allows it to fall through food more easily while you chop, so the knife does more of the work for you! How great is that?
