Outstanding features – Japanese engineering at its finest

Exclusive Itokiri blade technology – exceptional sharpness
The defining feature of the KAI Sekimagoroku kitchen knife is the exclusive Itokiri blade construction, a rare achievement even among Japanese stainless steel knives. The compact blade with a finely crafted edge and traditional single-bevel grind delivers maximum sharpness and clean, straight cuts. Re-sharpening is also easier, ensuring long-term performance.

Molybdenum–vanadium stainless steel – strength and durability
The blade is crafted from premium molybdenum–vanadium stainless steel, renowned for its edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. With a blade thickness of 5 mm, it is ideal not only for filleting fish but also for cutting through bones, an uncommon advantage in this category.

Octagonal handle – ergonomics and superior hygiene
The octagonal handle made from reinforced laminated wood fits naturally in the hand, providing excellent control. The bolster is integrally molded from nylon, eliminating gaps between blade and handle to ensure maximum hygiene and structural strength.
