Masakage Kiri VG-10 Ko-Bunka 130mm
Yoshimi Kato is one of the more well-known blacksmiths working in the Takefu Village Co-operative. He makes knives under various names, including Kanehiro and Masakage.
The Kiri line of kitchen knives is noted for their fine materials, expert grinds, top-notch fit and finish, and stunning aesthetics. The core steel used in this line is VG-10 or V Gold -10. It is a fully stainless alloy used extensively in the cutlery industry. It possesses great edge-taking and holding attributes and is one of the most durable alloys used to make knives.
The Masakage Kiri VG-10 Ko Bunka ("Ko" means small) is a champ at paring and peeling tasks. It also shines as a tool for prepping garnishes. The lovely magnolia and red-dyed pakka wood handle add a look and balance to the blade that is just perfect. This is one of our favorite knife companies and one of our favorite small knives.Brand: Masakage
