A single-bevel Japanese utility knife for precise cutting, scoring, and detail work. The Kiridashi is a small, wedge-ground blade traditionally used in craft and kitchen work where precision matters more than power. In a sushi kitchen it's used for sasagiri (bamboo leaf cuts), intricate garnish work, and scoring fish skin cleanly. The chisel grind holds a finer edge than most Western utility knives. Blade: Single-bevel, chisel grind Best for: Sasagiri, garnish work, fish skin scoring Edge retention: High - resharpen on a 1000/3000 grit whetstone Care: Hand wash, dry immediately, store sheathed Show more
