Personalized 9.5" VG10 Damascus Kiritsuke Knife with Pakkawood Handle

Add reach to your kitchen prep with this North Rustic 9.5-inch kiritsuke knife. Featuring 67-layer VG10 Damascus steel and a pakkawood handle, it combines a long culinary blade with distinctive patterned steel. Custom engraving makes it a personal centerpiece for a cooking enthusiast’s cutlery collection.

More Blade Length for Longer Slices

The 9.5-inch blade provides room for extended slicing strokes when preparing larger vegetables and boneless cuts of meat or fish. Its kiritsuke style offers an alternative to a traditional chef knife for cooks who enjoy deliberate, controlled preparation.

Measuring 14.65 inches overall, this is a larger kitchen knife suited to those who prefer additional blade length and have ample cutting-board space.

67-Layer VG10 Damascus Steel

The layered Damascus construction brings a flowing pattern to the blade, paired with a listed hardness of 60 HRC. A pakkawood handle complements the steel with a warm, wood-toned appearance, giving the knife a look that fits both rustic kitchens and modern cutlery collections.

Engraving Worth Bringing to the Table

Personalize the knife with a name, initials, meaningful date, or short dedication. An inscription can celebrate a culinary school graduation, recognize years spent cooking for family, or mark a milestone in someone’s kitchen journey.

For an experienced home cook who already owns the essentials, an engraved kiritsuke offers a distinctive addition to their collection. Choose words that make the gift specific to their accomplishments, favorite traditions, or the occasion you are celebrating.
