Japanese chef's knife with layered steel blade, 7.1 inch (18 cm)

Shaped with a cleaver-inspired profile and built on the disciplined principles of Japanese metalworking, this chef’s knife brings clarity, balance, and control to everyday kitchen tasks. The wide blade supports deliberate, safe cuts, especially for vegetables and larger ingredients.

The 7.1 inch (18 cm) blade is made of layered steel for lasting durability and a reliable, stable edge. A subtle surface texture adds visual depth and helps with smooth slicing as well as controlled chopping during many prep tasks. The blade remains uncoated for a clear, direct cutting feel.

The pakkawood handle is shaped to rest comfortably and securely in your hand. Its well-balanced connection with the blade ensures steady guidance and measured movement, even during long cooking sessions.

With an overall length of 14.2 inches (36 cm), the knife is evenly weighted to encourage fluid, controlled movement. Made for daily use, it stays quietly in the background of your kitchen, with its construction most appreciated during calm, thoughtful cooking.
