Kiritsuke — the knife traditionally reserved for the head chef in Japanese cuisine, excellent for slicing and precise cuts — and this model from the Tsuchime collection carries on a centuries-old tradition: the blade is hammer-forged, and the forging marks (tsuchime literally means “hammered”) remain visible, making every blade unique. Beyond its look, the hammered texture reduces food sticking to the blade. The ox horn ferrule and the maple wood handle, in Japanese wa style, give it perfect balance and a warm, authentic look.

Why DACOBI?
Frequently asked questions
What does the 10-year warranty cover?
The 10-year warranty covers any defect arising from correct use of DACOBI knives or any manufacturing defects. All other products carry a 2-year warranty.
How do I care for DACOBI knives?
Depending on the steel used, DACOBI knives need different care. You'll find all the information you need to maintain your knife properly on each product page and inside your order.
Do DACOBI knives rust?
High-carbon steel blades can develop a patina if not cared for properly. A patina is a natural protective layer on carbon steel that shields the blade from further oxidation and gives it a hardened finish. It forms as the surface oxidises, and the process speeds up when the knife meets various acids. You can recognise a patina by its characteristic colours: first golden yellow, then deep blue, then violet, and finally grey that darkens over time. If you notice red rust spots, remove them.
