  • In Japan, using a kiritsuke is a sign of a master chef. A skilled cook can do just about anything with this long-bladed knife, which functions like a chef's knife for all-purpose chopping, thin slicing & mincing. Named for the blacksmith's forge, the premium Kaji series was developed by Shun's master knife makers exclusively for Williams Sonoma.

    • Long blade is ideal for cleaning & portioning boneless meats—as well as dicing, slicing or julienning vegetables.
    • 65-layer blade features a premium SG-2 powdered steel cutting core clad in 64 layers of forged nickel/stainless-steel Damascus.
    • Inspired by centuries-old samurai sword–making techniques, the blade's construction creates a super sharp cutting edge.
    • Handle is made of moisture-resistant, resin-infused PakkaWood, shaped for comfort & control.
    • This NSF-certified knife meets the high-level hygiene standards for professional kitchens.
    • Handcrafted in Japan.
