Suncraft 9-inch Seseragi Bread Knife
With three unique blade edges, this smartly-designed serrated knife combines the function of two knives in one—slicing through any and all loaves with ease. The blade is 9 inches, so long enough to cut the largest loaf cleanly without sawing back and forth. And the tapered blade features a gently curved belly to facilitate clean slicing. A 2-inch section of wide wave serrations located closer to the tip of the knife dives in and saws through a crunchy, rustic outer crust, while the smaller teeth cleanly slice through the inner crumb. It’s also ideal for delicate foods like soft sandwich breads and juicy tomatoes. The knife features a small length of straight blade at the tip to pierce through tough crusts, tomato skins or melon rinds. Plus, the handle is specifically designed for a comfortable grip, with a slight curve to it.
Milk Street Kitchin-kiji
The Kitchin-Kiji is expected to ship by October 30th.
The one kind of knife missing from most Western kitchens is one of the most used in Japan—a midsized, multipurpose utility knife bigger and stronger than a paring knife but smaller and more manageable than a chef’s knife. Why Western cooks typically don’t have such a knife is beyond us, so we took months to design our own. The result is the Kitchin-kiji—the ultimate all-purpose utility knife that will speed up your prep. It’s perfect for all the “in-between” jobs, small enough for detailed handwork like slicing garlic and shallots, trimming mushrooms or cutting fruit. Plus, we designed it with a broad blade to be large enough that it won’t twist, and the larger handle fills the hand for a confident grip.
Milk Street Funayuki All-Purpose Prep Knife
Once an essential tool of Japanese fisherman, the funayuki (literally “boat-going knife”), is designed as the original do-it-all knife for fish, meats and vegetables. The 6½-inch long, leaf-shaped blade is tall enough to safely chop through large amounts of ingredients at one time like a cleaver, yet it tapers quickly to a fine tip for precision tasks. The strongly arced blade and forward stance excels at cutting meats, though it minces and rock chops vegetables equally well. The curve extends the blade length for cleaner slicing in a compact package.
Milk Street Kitchin-tan™ Serrated Japanese-Style Utility Knife
The serrated Milk Street Kitchin-tan utility knife will be the most useful knife in your kitchen. It’s a pinch-hitting wonder that spans the gap between a chef’s knife and paring knife. It’s long enough for many big tasks, but small enough for detail work. We’ve taken the proven shape and functionality of the Kitchin-tan and added a maintenance-free serrated edge. The grippy razor teeth effortlessly slice though anything and everything: thick-skinned tomatoes and peppers, fibrous broccoli stems and asparagus stalks, rubbery citrus peels. You’ll be amazed at how often you use this knife.
The Organic Company Oven Gloves
Unlike typical two-piece oven mitts, the Organic Company’s oven gloves combine protection into one sturdy piece of machine-washable fabric. Made from organic cotton with built-in pocketed hot pads on each end to simultaneously protect both your hands (and arms) at once, these unique oven gloves are a functional game-changer. The connected design means you’ll never have to scramble to find your gloves, while the thick padded cotton can also double as a trivet to use on the table. Plus, all fabric is certified to be free from toxins and heavy metals and made under fair working conditions.
Milk Street Precision & Julienne Peeler Set
Equipped with razor-sharp, replaceable blades plus a power handle for big and little jobs, it’ll change the way you cook. We redesigned the peeler, using top-grade 420 stainless steel for the replaceable blade (why don’t all peelers have replaceable blades?) and a handle that is big enough for a firm, easy grip. Try it just once and you will find that it peels like cutting through butter. It’s that good!

Dao Vua Leaf Spring Honesuki Knife
Honesuki knives are a Japanese blade style designed for butchering poultry. Their fine tip, acutely angled triangular blade and medium length are perfectly designed for breaking down chickens. Dao Vua’s inspired version adds a touch of curve to the belly to make it much more versatile. Beyond butchering, it’s good for prepping veggies, slicing garlic, trimming meat and slicing sandwiches. The relatively long handle offers added leverage for cutting through denser veggies like sweet potatoes, too. If you’re looking for a do-everything knife for the smaller jobs, we highly recommend this one.
NOTE: Because of the handmade nature of the knives, expect imperfections and texture on each blade’s surface. We think it enhances the character and uniqueness of each knife. The exposed portion of the cutting surface is susceptible to moisture and acid and will develop a patina over time. The knives should not be left wet and should be wiped down after slicing acidic foods. To minimize coloring, they can be treated with camellia oil and cleaned with a rust eraser.
We strongly recommend buying the camellia oil with this knife.
