Handmade Damascus Kiritsuke Chef Knife with Octagonal Wa Handle

This kiritsuke chef knife brings Japanese-inspired design to the kitchen, with a patterned Damascus blade and a faceted octagonal brown handle. The kiritsuke's K-tip profile — a straight edge meeting an angled, pointed tip — is made for precise slicing, fine vegetable work and detailed cuts, giving experienced cooks a blade that handles both everyday preparation and careful presentation work. The octagonal handle, finished in brown with a contrasting gold-tone band, sits comfortably in the hand and gives the knife a distinctive look that sets it apart from standard Western chef knives. The gallery presents the complete knife from several angles, including both sides of the blade and the handle proportions, so you can study the profile before ordering. As a single speciality knife rather than a set, it suits cooks who want one standout blade for precision tasks, and it also makes a strong gift for a keen cook. Sharpcraft handcrafts its Damascus blades in Pakistan and supports orders through its USA office, with free US shipping and a 30-day return window. Before ordering, confirm the blade and overall lengths, weight, steel specification and any accessories, since the live page has no spec table at all.
