Milk Street Kitchin-tan™ — White 2nd Edition
This utility-size companion to our Kitchin-to, the Kitchin-tan strikes the perfect balance between a paring and chef’s knife, it will be your new go-to. The easy-to-maneuver 5.5-inch blade is 1.5 millimeters thick, much thinner than most Western-style knives and sharpened to an acute 15-17 degrees per side. Its blunt tip keeps fingers safe, and the butt of the bolsterless blade is curved inward to make it easy to grip for fine control. A filework pattern machined into the blade near the handle acts as a grippy, tactile point for the thumb and index finger to grasp securely.
The knife’s ergonomic handle is made from micarta, a nearly indestructible composite created from layers of linen tightly compacted in phenolic resin. The material feels smooth and secure in the hand and becomes subtly grippier when wet. The handle is flattened on top to fill the palm securely, then tapers downward toward the butt of the knife to accommodate a secure grip.
Milk Street Kitchin-to™ Knife - 1st edition
A unique cross between a Japanese vegetable knife and a Chinese cleaver, the Kitchin-to™ will replace your chef’s knife. The knife's overall design borrows elements from our two favorite knives: the Japanese vegetable knife (nakiri) and the Chinese cleaver (cai dao). The 7-inch-long blade is nearly as tall as a cleaver—almost 2.5 inches at the butt—and 1.5 millimeters thick, much thinner than most Western-style knives and sharpened to an acute 15-17 degrees per side. The Kitchin-to™ can mince, chop, slice and push-cut, and it's broad enough to use as a bench scraper for transferring chopped foods from the cutting board. And similar to a Japanese santoku, the gently arced blade design can be used for both Western- and Japanese-style cutting methods. Its blunt tip keeps fingers safe, and the butt of the bolsterless blade is curved inward to make it easy to grip for fine control. A filework pattern machined into the blade near the handle acts as a grippy, tactile point for the thumb and index finger to grasp securely.

Milk Street Kitchin-tan™ Serrated Japanese-Style Utility Knife
Meet the Serrated Kitchin-tan, an all-purpose knife that takes the proven shape and functionality of the Kitchin-tan and adds a maintenance-free serrated edge. We thoughtfully designed our 5.5-inch long, 1.4116 German steel Kitchin-tan knife to fill the gap between a chef’s knife and paring knife. It’s long enough for big tasks, and the grippy teeth slice though anything: fibrous asparagus stalks, thick-skinned squash, rubbery citrus peels or a gooey wedge of Brie. And those razor-sharp teeth also work for detail work, like slicing chicken breasts, butterflying shrimp or chopping soft fruit. It’ll cut through a bagel or crusty baguette with ease, without crushing the delicate inner crumb, and the knife’s rounded tip makes spreading butter or cream cheese on top an easy feat. The midsized, ergonomic polymer handle is designed to comfortably adapt to a variety of cutting styles; it tapers toward the blade for a secure grip. The German 1.4116 steel blade is cut with fine, razor-sharp serrations that hold an edge for ages without any maintenance.
