Tetsujin Hamono Aogami Tanryusen Kiritsuke 240mm

About the Shape - Inspired by the profile of a traditional European chef knife and the badass tip of a Kiritsuke (Traditionally a single bevel knife), double bevel Kiritsukes are a multi-purpose knife with a slight meat cutting bias. If you want one knife to do it all, and look cooler than your buddy, this is your knife. For the at-home or professional cook, we recommend a Kiritsuke which measures between 210mm and 240mm long.

About Tetsujin Tanryusen - Tetsujin brand is a collaboration of Toru Tamura, who used to work at Knifewear Calgary, and Naohito Myojin who is a sharpener behind the Konosuke Fujiyama series. This particular knife is made with aogami 2 and soft steel cladding. The cladding is NOT Damascus layers, but they show so-called steel forge flow. It’s similar to the grain of wood.
