Ideal for both precision cutting and chopping in the kitchen, where the Japanese knife-making tradition meets modern materials and craftsmanship.
Sharpness and Durability in a Class of Their Own
The core of the Tojiro Reppu Kiritsuke is made from SG2 powdered high-speed steel, a material normally used in metalworking tools. This gives the knife exceptional sharpness and edge retention that you will notice from the very first cut. The 14 layers of damascus steel surrounding the core not only contribute to the knife's strength but also create the distinctive wave pattern that contrasts beautifully with the sandblasted blade. The result is a knife that stays sharp for longer whilst also offering good resistance to wear and rust.
Functional Design with Japanese Precision
The K-tip of the Tojiro Reppu Kiritsuke gives the knife a versatile functionality that makes it suitable for a wide range of kitchen tasks. The octagonal teak handle contributes natural water-resistant and pest-resistant properties. The handle is constructed with an internal structure that replaces the traditional bolster and ensures the blade remains firmly anchored. With an overall length of 320 mm and a weight of just 105 grams, the knife sits comfortably in the hand without feeling heavy, even during prolonged use.
