      Kiritsuke is one of the few traditionally multipurpose Japanese-style knives, and is a hybrid between the Yanagiba (Slicing knife) and the Usuba (Japanese-style vegetable knife). This versatile knife features a long blade like a Yanagiba and a straight cutting edge like an Usuba, resulting in a hybrid design with dual personalities; it can be used like an Usuba for cutting vegetables, or like a Yanagiba to easily slice raw fish. Its long and flat blade, straight edge and angled ‘reverse tanto’ or ‘clip point’ tip lends the Kiritsuke its signature sword shape.

      Gingami No.3 (Hitachi Metals Ltd.) is a very fine-grained Stainless Steel that can attain edge sharpness and edge retention comparable to some High Carbon Steels. It has even been used to create corrosion-resistant versions of Japanese traditional single bevel knives. It is very popular with both professionals and home cooks and is generally believed to be slightly easier to sharpen than VG-10.

      “Nashiji” (English: pear skin pattern) refers to the result of a technique that appears to leave the surface finish of a blade looking unfinished and rustic.
