KIFT15: Tatsutogi Series Funayuki All-Purpose Knife

Kikuichi Cutlery

A Funayuki is a short, all-purpose knife that was historically used by fishermen while at sea. The profile of the blade is similar to that of a deba but thinner; making it an excellent all-purpose knife.

Tatsutogi is Kikuichi's most economical single bevel carbon steel traditional series. Hand-forged in the sword-making tradition from two pieces of steel. With soft steel as the edge, these are easier to sharpen, making them good beginner Japanese chef knives.

Kikuichi has a long and distinguished history. Although they have been producing superior cutlery for more than 100 years, the origin of our company lies some 700 years ago. For most of their history, they manufactured Samurai swords that bore the Emperor's Chrysanthemum symbol as a mark of their excellence. Today, Kikuichi ancestors' swords are considered national treasures in Japan.
