When a chef’s knife is too big, and a paring knife is too small, the Milk Street Kitchin-tan is the perfect pinch hitter. We borrowed elements from our favorite Western- and Japanese-style knives to create this all-purpose utility knife. From making sandwiches to chopping herbs, dicing shallots and cutting fruit, this 5½-inch blade will become the go-to knife for all of your between jobs. It has a comfortable grip, cuts like a dream and has a curved sheepsfoot tip, which makes the knife safer to use.

Net Weight: 100 grams
Blade Length: 5.2 inches
Blade Steel: German 1.4116 steel.
Handle: Black Polymer
Spine Thickness: 1.5 millimeters

The knife must be washed by hand and dried after each use immediately to ensure no staining occurs. Do not put in dishwasher.


To maintain the blade's edge, sharpen the Kitchin-tan at a 17 degree angle.
