About the Shape: 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.
About Tsunehisa: Tsunehisa blades are made with the ethos of 'affordable quality'. They make high-end Japanese blades by machine-forging their steel to create a reliable, consistent, and affordable product, which is then lovingly finished by a team of expert craftspeople for a handmade fit & finish.
