Product Information
Kiritsuke Octagons Series - Kiritsuke knife Damascus Onyx Octagon by Shinrai is designed as a versatile knife for preparing Asian dishes. This has been done by combining the blade of a nakiri (vegetable knife) and sujihiki (fish knife). This combination allows you to cut many ingredients with one knife.
This edition of the Kiritsuke Octagons Series is finished to perfection. The damask steel blade extends into the beautiful Micarta jewelled bolster. Micarta is made of several layers of linen compressed with synthetic resin under high pressure. These inlaid jewellery rings create a unique and stunning composition.
The wood of the handle is made of durable hardwood. The black hardwood is separated twice by 2 brass rings. The back of the knife is made of epoxy, which has the black colour of Onyx jewels. Mosaic rivets are placed on the back and the side of the handle. This composition of this knife creates a unique and stunning composition. The knife is octagonal, also known as an octagon. This gives the knife its name Octagons.
- High-quality damask steel
- Beautiful ergonomic handle
- Razor-sharp kiritsuke knife with a 23-centimetre blade.
- Comes in a luxury gift box

Perfect grip
The damask steel blade extends into the beautiful Micarta jewelled bolster. Micarta is made of several layers of linen compressed with synthetic resin under high pressure. These inlaid jewellery rings create a unique and stunning composition.
The wood of the handle is made of durable black ebony. The black ebony is separated twice by 2 brass rings. A mosaic rivet is placed on the back of the knife.

A beautiful gift
The knives always come in a beautiful gift box. This not only ensures that the knives are protected along the way, but also puts a smile on your face when you receive it.
VG10 67-layer damask steel
Shinrai knives are unique as most are handmade. Both sides of the knife consist of 33 layers of the finest steel. These layers are placed against a layer of VG10 steel, giving you a knife of 67 layers. This is also known as Damask steel. The production technique is centuries old and results in stronger and harder knives. This makes the knives indispensable for any kitchen.
Specifications
Maintenance and Care
To keep your chef's knife in optimum condition, we recommend hand washing it with mild soap and warm water. As with any good chef's knife, avoid the dishwasher, as the aggressive cleaning can quickly shorten the life of your knife. After washing, make sure to dry it immediately and thoroughly to avoid stains.
Sharpen regularly
Use a sharpening stone, sharpening rod or sharpening steel regularly. This will help you effortlessly maintain the sharpness and precision of your knife, extend its lifespan and continue to enjoy an unparalleled cutting experience.
Storage
Properly storing your knives in a knife block is essential to not only ensure safety, but also extend the life of your knives. By storing them this way, you prevent damage to the cutting edges and ensure that they are always within reach when you need them.
Correct substrate
Quality cutting boards are essential for keeping your knives sharp and extending their life. They provide a soft, non-abrasive surface that prevents knives from dulling quickly and reduces the impact on the blade while cutting. Using quality cutting boards is an investment in both the performance and durability of your knives.
Warranty
We are fully convinced of the quality of Shinrai kitchen knives. That is why we offer a 25-year warranty on material and manufacturing defects.

What our customers are saying
I ordered a magnetic knife block and it's perfect. The delivery took a little longer than expected but I only realised later that it's shipped from outside the UK. Nonetheless, it arrived in great condition, looks fab and works exactly as I hoped.
Exactly what I was looking for in a knife, something I could use both at home or in work and a brilliant edition to my already growing collection. Will 100% back to buy another, also loved the way they give you a plaster with your knife!...never seen this before
