Milk Street Kitchin-to™ and Serrated Kitchin-tan™ Set $179.90 $161.91

Here’s why we love them:

Sturdy, effective blades.
These knives’ fully considered blade shapes borrow elements from our favorite Western and Japanese-style knives. The Serrated Kitchin-tan’s 5.5-inch blade is long enough for most tasks yet short enough for close, tight handwork—peeling garlic, shallots and onions, for example, or trimming radishes or mushroom stems. Meanwhile, the Kitchin-to’s 7.5-inch-long blade is nearly as tall as a cleaver—almost 2.5 inches at the butt. It 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 at 1.5 millimeters thick at the spine, the blades of both knives are thin enough for the finest cuts, yet not unnervingly flexible like some other knives. And the subtly curved belly makes them functional for rock-chopping and mincing, as well as long, clean slicing.
Designed with safety in mind.
The knives’ rounded tip keeps fingers safe, and the butt of the bolsterless blades is curved inward to make it easy to grip for fine control. Inspired by traditional Japanese blades with a hammered finish, our knives have a filework pattern machined into the blade near the handle. This acts as a grippy, tactile point for the thumb and index finger to grasp securely.
Ergonomic handles.
The ergonomic handles are made from black polymer. The handles are flattened on top to fill the palm securely, then taper downward toward the butt of the knife to accommodate a secure grip. The top of the handles also angles toward the blade to allow a comfortable, confident pinch grip.
