The **Kai Shun Classic White kiritsuke** is a knife that combines the design and characteristics of a Japanese usubas and yanagibas. You mostly use a Usabas to cut vegetables, while the yanagiba is mostly used to cut raw fish, to make sushi for instance. It makes the kiritsuke great for the more common purposes: cutting vegetables, meat and fish. The reversed tanto-profile of the kiritsuke makes the tip very agile for the finer cutting jobs, but also vulnerable. The flat cutting edge is perfect for the other cutting tasks.

 ## Kai Shun Classic White Limited Edition

 The Limited Edition knife was named 'KAI Shun Classic White Kiritsuke'. Only 5555 pieces of this knife are produced. Aside from the fact that this knife has a unique look and feel, it is only limitedly available. Of course all knives are numbered to make sure you know which number you have purchased!

 ## Classic White blade

 The KAI knives are made from 32 layers of stainless damast, with a core layer made from VG-MAX steel. This is an extremely corrosion resistant cobalt alloy with a hardness of 61-62 HRC. Each KAI blade gets a special surface treatment, creating the stunning pattern of lines that is so characteristic of damascus steel. Each KAI knife is sharpened by hand before it ends up in your kitchen.

 ## Classic White handle

 The handles are made from white pakka wood and have a traditional Japanese 'chestnut shape'. It gives these knives excellent ergonomics. Only suited for right-handed use because of the asymmetrical shape of the handle.

 ## Safely store your kiritsuke

 If you put your kiritsuke in a drawer you run the risk that your knife will come into contact with other steel objects. This is not recommended for the sharpness of your knife. Also, grabbing in a drawer that holds sharp kitchen knives isn't very safe. For that reason you should always use knife guards, an in-drawer or, even better, a good knife magnet or knife block.

General information

We always measure the blade height at the highest part of the blade.

Blade height

We always measure the blade length ourselves. This is the length of the blade from the tip to the front of the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade length

We always measure the blade thickness at the thickest part of the blade. Often just before the handle. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specification.

Blade thickness

value_handle_length

Measured from the tip of the blade to the back of the handle

Total length

We always weigh a product as bare as possible. Knives and axes always without their sheath, lights (if possible) without their battery. For knife sets we measure the entire weight. This may deviate from the manufacturer's specifications.

Weight

Dimensions & weight

value_steel_hardness

The hardness in Rockwell C for a knife is always according to the manufacturer's specifications. When a manufacturer specifies a value of 56-58HRC, for instance, we always note the highest value, i.e. 58HRC.

This concerns the type of edge [Want to learn more about a serrated versus a plain edge](/en/ct/pocket-knives-difference-plain-edge-serrated.htm)?

Type of edge

We measure the sharpening angle ourselves. This value is the angle per side.  So 20º means that the total angle of the edge is 40º. Please note that knives are almost always sharpened by hand, even in factories. This value is therefore only an indication of a single tool measured by us. You are always free to choose your own sharpening angle. [Learn more about sharpening angles](/en/ct/sharpening-angles-explained.htm).

Sharpening angle

In terms of grind we are talking about how the complete blade thickness extends into the edge. Want to learn more about grinds? [Read all about grinds on knives](/en/ct/knife-grinds.htm).

Way of sharpening

value_total_sharpening_angle

This is the total sharpening angle, so the sharpening angles of both sides of the blade combined. For a knife with a one-sided grind this equals a single sharpening angle.
