Raiden Knife Duo (Gyuto & Kiritsuke)
Two Raiden blades to start a block: the workhorse Gyuto for everyday cutting and the precise Kiritsuke slicer for fish and Sunday roasts. Forged and finished in Seki, Japan.
Features
- The Gyuto handles the bulk of weeknight prep while the Kiritsuke steps in for slicing work.
- Both blades share the same edge geometry, so technique carries straight from one knife to the other.
- A matched pair rather than two knives bought apart: same steel, same finish, same hand feel.
- Each core runs VG-10 hardened to 60 ±2 HRC, keeping the edge on both blades equally durable.
- 67 layers of Damascus cladding wrap both blades, each one patterned a little differently.
- Weight varies between the two knives, though the Kiritsuke's added length never feels front-heavy.
Ebony octagonal wa grip on both knives, each one finished with a rosewood collar and turquoise ring.
