Premium Damascus Kiritsuke Chef's Knife
The Koch CK-DW1 is a handcrafted Kiritsuke chef's knife that combines traditional Japanese-inspired design with premium materials and exceptional craftsmanship. Featuring a beautifully patterned Carbon Damascus steel blade, engraved Rosewood handle, polished stainless steel bolster, and genuine leather sheath, this knife is equally at home in the kitchen or as a collector's piece.
The Kiritsuke profile combines the versatility of a chef's knife with the precision of a slicing knife, making it ideal for vegetables, meat, fish, herbs, and fine preparation work.
Carbon Damascus Steel Blade
Crafted from Carbon Damascus steel, the blade displays a striking layered pattern that makes every knife unique. The high-performance steel delivers outstanding sharpness, excellent edge retention, and precise cutting performance.
As every blade is individually forged and finished, the Damascus pattern will naturally vary from knife to knife.
Handcrafted Rosewood Handle
The engraved Rosewood handle is finished with decorative mosaic pins, brass accents, a polished stainless steel bolster, and a lanyard hole. The full tang construction provides excellent balance, strength, and control during extended use.
Natural wood grain ensures every handle has its own unique appearance.
Premium Leather Sheath
The genuine leather sheath protects the blade during transport and storage while adding a classic handcrafted finish.
Storage Notice
The leather sheath is designed primarily for transport rather than long-term storage. Always ensure the knife is thoroughly cleaned, completely dry, and lightly oiled before placing it into the sheath. For extended storage, we recommend using a magnetic knife holder, wooden knife block, or dry drawer to help preserve both the Damascus steel and the leather.
