Damask knife Kiritsuke – an impressive blade

Good to identify in the knife block is the Kiritsuke Damascus knife with the bevelled blade. It gives this kitchen knife a slightly martial impression and is intended to point out its sharpness. The Kiritsuke uses Japanese quality steel of the highest quality (AUS-10). The high carbon content leads to extreme hardness, while admixtures of other substances provide elasticity and toughness. In this Damascus kitchen knives, 22 layers of stainless steel 416 are forged around the AUS-10 middle layer. The repeated folding of the material creates the exotic-looking crocodile skin pattern on the blade. The grinding angle of 12 to 15° indicates the extreme sharpness of the cutting edge. The blade blade (hira) tapers to the tang (nakago), to which the no less impressive handle is attached.
