XITUO 8 Inch Kiritsuke Chef Knife 7 Layer 440C Steel Blue Resin Honeycomb Handle
Sharp 440C Kiritsuke knife for daily prep
This XITUO Kiritsuke knife is built for cooks who want clean cuts and steady control. Because the blade is made from 440C steel with a 7 layer composite build, it holds a sharp edge while staying corrosion resistant. Moreover, the hardness is rated around 60 ± 2 HRC, so slicing feels crisp on vegetables, fruit, and boneless meat.
8 inch profile that slices, chops, and portions smoothly
The Kiritsuke shape gives you a long, straight edge, therefore you can push cut or pull slice with fewer strokes. The image shows an 18.5 cm blade length, which is a practical size for board work in home and pro kitchens. Also, the blade thickness is listed as 2.0 mm, so it feels agile while still staying stable during prep.
Product properties that matter in real cooking
If you want one knife that covers most tasks, this is a strong option, although it still feels precise for fine slicing.

Built for comfort, balance, and long term value
A good chef knife should feel balanced, and this one does thanks to its 12.5 cm handle length and 220 g listed weight. Because the handle has a contoured shape, it sits closer to the palm, so control improves during longer sessions. Finally, with basic care like hand washing and drying right after use, you can keep the edge and finish looking sharp for a long time.
