Product Description

The kiritsuke yanagi has a sword tip. It is slightly heavier than the traditional yanagi. The weight is evenly distributed from the tip and heel of the blade. This makes it easier to use the long blade.

By definition, nami means wave and uchi means forge. Our namiuchi knives are forged with Blue Steel #1 with a beautiful wave pattern. The wave pattern makes it more challenging to combine the hard and soft iron together. Exceptional attention is given during the hammering process as it purifies the metal. Only highly experienced knife craftsmen can make these knives, therefore not many of these knives are made. The cutting edge of the namiuchi is superior than most knives made of Blue Steel #1. Recommended for professional chefs.
