{"product_id":"couteau-kiritsuke-18-cm-erable","title":"Alba · Kiritsuke Knife 7\"","description":"\u003cp class=\"cd-intro\"\u003eThis 7-inch Alba kiritsuke has a straight edge and a clipped, angled tip: it cuts flat on the board like a nakiri, and the tip handles fine work. It is the series' vegetable knife, from carrots to leeks. Hammered 7Cr17MoV stainless steel, 148 g (5.2 oz), octagonal light maple handle.\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 Alba Kiritsuke Knife 7\" has a 7Cr17MoV stainless steel blade, hardened to 56-58 HRC, with a hammered finish near the spine and a polished edge sharpened to 15-20° per side. This slightly wider angle gives a sturdy edge that is easy to maintain on a honing rod or whetstone. The octagonal Japanese-style handle is light maple with an amber resin ferrule; its symmetrical shape suits right- and left-handers alike. The maple grain changes from piece to piece.\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.
