What is a Kiritsuke Knife Used For?

A kiritsuke knife is traditionally used for slicing fish and vegetables, making it perfect for preparing sushi and sashimi. Its long, straight edge allows for precise cuts, while the pointed tip is ideal for intricate tasks. The kiritsuke is a hybrid between the usuba and yanagiba, combining their best features into one versatile knife.

Kiritsuke vs Gyuto and Other Knives

Comparing the kiritsuke vs gyuto, kiritsuke vs santoku, kiritsuke vs nakiri, or even kiritsuke vs yanagiba, the Takumi Kiritsuke Knife stands out for its versatility and precision. While the gyuto is a general-purpose knife and the santoku excels in chopping, the kiritsuke combines slicing and intricate tasks in one blade. The nakiri is specialized for vegetables, whereas the kiritsuke can handle both vegetables and fish with ease. The yanagiba is mainly for slicing raw fish, but the kiritsuke offers similar functionality with added versatility.
