{"product_id":"couteau-kiritsuke-damas-23-cm-pakkawood-clair","title":"Dune · Damascus Kiritsuke Knife 9\"","description":"\u003cp class=\"cd-intro\"\u003e8.2 oz: the 9-inch Dune kiritsuke is the heaviest knife in the series. That weight and length take a beef tenderloin or a whole salmon in one stroke, without sawing. It replaces a chef knife if you mostly cut with a pull stroke. 67-layer damascus blade with an S35VN-type powder steel core, 62 ± 2 HRC, light pakkawood handle with a mosaic pin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kiritsuke is a versatile Japanese-style knife with an angled tip, somewhere between a chef knife and a yanagiba. Its long, fairly flat blade slices meat and fish in a single stroke, and the angled tip handles precise work: fine chopping, scoring, skinning. You use it like a chef knife, with a straighter, cleaner cut. Japanese-style blade, thin and hard.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and Handle\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Dune Damascus Kiritsuke Knife 9\" has a blade made of 67 layers of damascus steel around an S35VN-type powder steel core, hardened to 62 ± 2 HRC and sharpened to 9-12° per side. Powder steels have a very fine, even structure, prized for edge retention. The fine, rippled damascus pattern differs on every blade. The handle is light pakkawood, a laminated wood impregnated with resin: it has the color of blond wood but handles moisture far better. A steel bolster and end cap frame it, with a decorative mosaic pin. It is the most complete series in the range: 14 knives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eShipping and Returns\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDamascus Knife ships free with tracking across the United States: 1 to 3 business days to prepare, then 8 to 14 business days in transit, import duties included.
