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, stiff blade to be large enough that it won’t twist, and the larger handle fills the hand for a confident grip. 

This is a Limited edition, premium run of our tried-and-true Milk Street Kitchin-kiji knife. It features a high-end Japanese AUS 8 steel blade specially forged with a non-stick “Tsuchime” hammered surface and a gorgeously grained, ultra-durable cocobolo wood handle.And it comes with a custom saya, or knife guard, to keep your blade keen and protect it in storage. Consider it an heirloom-quality tool to use and pass on to the next generation of cooks in your family.

Dimensions: 3.5 inch blade

Materials:

  • Handle: Cocobolo Wood
  • Blade: High-end Japanese AUS8 steel blade specially treated with a non-stick “Tsuchime” hammered surface

The knife must be washed by hand and dried after each use immediately to ensure no staining occurs.

The Knife Everyone Needs But Nobody Has.

  1. Stays Razor Sharp

    Ultra high-quality Japanese AUS8 steel is renowned for its durability, corrosion resistance and sharpness that lasts a lifetime with routine honing.
  2. Premium Cocobolo Ergonomic Grip

    An ultra-dense, very durable and gorgeously grained cocobolo handle fills the palm for a secure grip.
  3. Hammered Surface

    The blade’s “Tsuchime” surface treatment prevents foods from clinging to the blade by trapping air.
  4. Blade Won’t Twist

    The blade is wide and stiff enough that it won't twist while slicing.
  5. Easier Detail Work

    The fine point on the blade makes detail work like trimming fat and boning easier.
  6. More Accurate Cuts

    A perfectly straight blade profile makes both handwork and cutting on the board easier and more accurate.
