Shimeru 8″ Damascus Pattern Kiritsuke knife 切り付け包丁
The Shinano 信濃川Damascus Pattern Stainless Steel Series Knives by Shimeru. Our eye-catching, unique handle designs are made from ergonomic blueresin,which is chemically stabilised. Highly impervious to heat, cold and moisture with military-grade strength and life-long durability.
Masterfully forged from professional-grade High-Carbon Steel, the Shinano Collection features individually forged kitchen knives that are built to last so that you never need another kitchen knife set again.
High-Carbon Steel, which was once the metal of choice of Japanese swordsmiths, has been exploding in popularity due to its added hardiness and sharpness, to such a degree that high-carbon steel has become the premier choice of many professional chefs.
Each Shinano knife is carefully heat-treated and sharpened to perfection for razor-sharp cutting and extreme durability. The knives are etched with a traditional Damascus pattern, paying homage to a style of knife-making whose history stretches back over 1000 years.
The knives boast a 15° edge for superior cutting, as compared to a typical 20-25° edge found in most Western knives. You WILL feel the difference from the very first cut.

I’m happy with how this knife performs. It’s sharp, comfortable to use, and seems like it will last a long time. The blade is precise and handles a variety of tasks with ease, though it does require frequent sharpening to maintain its edge. The handle is well-designed and provides a secure grip, but I think it could be slightly more cushioned for better comfort during extended use. Overall, it’s a reliable knife that’s worth the investment, even if it does need a bit of upkeep.
