From the Brand: Kyoku

After the samurai declined in 1868, Japanese swordsmiths applied their skills to cutlery with unprecedented innovation. Kyoku was inspired by the honor and integrity of these master bladesmiths. Our mission is to make high-end Japanese cutlery affordable for pro chefs and home cooks worldwide. Our passion for culinary creativity keeps us on the cutting edge of handcrafted cutlery.

Product Description: The 3.5" Japanese Small Paring Knife

This fruit paring knife, part of Kyoku's premier Shogun series, is made with modern technology and traditional craftsmanship. Its Japanese 67-layer Damascus VG-10 steel blade has been cryogenically treated, ensuring heightened wear-resistance and superior corrosion resistance. The blade has been sharpened to an 8-12 degree edge using the traditional 3-step Honbazuke method, delivering exceedingly precise cuts ideal for peeling vegetables, mincing herbs, coring fruit, and more.

The carefully constructed fiberglass handle with its signature mosaic pin withstands cold, heat, corrosion, and moisture, while the provided sheath and case allow you to protect and store your knife, keeping it clean and secure. The meticulous craftsmanship provides the perfect shape and blade-to-handle weight distribution, ensuring well-balanced work and preventing fatigue and cramping, even in professional settings requiring bulk prep work.

Order this Shogun-class paring knife with peace of mind, thanks to its strong and lifelong warranty and Kyoku's usual friendly 24/7 customer service.

The Kyoku Shogun Series: Powerfully Prestigious, Progressively Potent

Made of cryogenically-hardened VG-10 steel wrapped between Damascus steel folded 33 times, the Shogun Series is the apex of modern Japanese cutlery, retaining its ultrafine edge and resisting corrosion to outlast the competition. Each blade is cryogenically treated using the traditional 3-step Honbazuke method for incredible hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. The hollow-edge design ensures nothing sticks to the blade.

Time-honored sword making methods make each Kyoku custom knife appear unique and result in a thinner, harder, and sharper blade than western knives. We blend ultramodern technology with ancient craftsmanship to create a scalpel-thin blade edge with powerful non-stick performance. The exclusive appearance is accented by a hammer-beaten wave pattern that gives way to a traditional Damascus steel design, while the ergonomic handle is artistically accented with an engraved mosaic pin, revealing this knife's luxurious identity. The metal blade extends the entire length of the handle to withstand punishing daily use without sacrificing comfortable handling and balanced performance.
