Precision and Performance in Every Slice

The Kazoku Royal Blue Aogami #2 Kiritsuke 19.5 cm is a Japanese chef's knife that blends exceptional quality with unbeatable value. Ideal for both professional chefs and home cooks, this versatile kiritsuke features a 19.5 cm blade, designed to handle a wide range of cutting tasks with ease. Whether slicing, dicing, or chopping, this knife excels in all areas, making it a must-have tool in any kitchen.

Japanese Aogami #2 Steel

The sharpness and performance of this knife are attributed to its premium Aogami #2 carbon steel, hardened to an impressive 61 HRC. Known for its ability to achieve razor-sharp edges at a 15-degree angle, this steel also allows the blade to be thinned to perfection for effortless cutting. To ensure durability and protection, the hard steel core is enveloped by three layers of softer, high-quality steel, offering strength and resilience. The middle layer is sandblasted for a stunning matte finish, which contrasts beautifully with the polished exterior of the blade, creating a visually striking appearance.

Ergonomic and Elegant Pakka Wood Handle

The handle of the Kazoku Kiritsuke is crafted from royal blue Pakka wood, a combination of wood and plastic that offers both the warm aesthetic of natural wood and the low maintenance of synthetic materials. This durable material ensures a secure and comfortable grip while adding a touch of sophistication to the knife’s overall design. The unique royal blue color enhances the knife’s visual appeal, making it not only a functional tool but also a true work of art.
