Save 70% on a high-carbon Japanese chef knife 

This kitchen knife isn’t just about looks, even if it is a stunning piece. The Abalone shell handle has also been ergonomically shaped for comfortable long-term use, and the damascus pattern on the blade isn’t the only thing remarkable about it. 

The Emperor Kiritsuke Chef Knife is made from extremely hard steel that has been nitrogen-cooled for enhanced corrosion resistance, flexibility, and durability. Every knife needs sharpening eventually, but this one may retain its edge much longer through daily use. Just make sure to run a honing rod over it once in a while to keep the edge straight.

Slice and dice with a blade that has been sharpened to a 15-degree razor edge. Shear through fish and fruit with no problem, but avoid trying to cut straight through bone. If you ever need to fully re-sharpen your knife, try a professional-quality knife sharpener to control the angle of the edge.
