The Kiritsuke, is a knife similar to a gyuto but with less curve at the belly and the classic K tip. It's great for both meat and veg prep as well slicing cooked meat and fish.
A note from the maker - ”Oishi! - That is what people in Japan say during or after having a delicious meal. With a different spelling and meaning but a similar sounding, Ohishi is also the name of the small village near the famous Mount Fuji, where our business was started. Finally and completing, Ohishi is the motto and brand name we have selected to build up and present our individual concept and understanding of a smart and fine-tuned knife set. Our idea was to help creating Oishi meals using Ohishi knives. We succeeded."

A note on carbon steel - Like many others we at Community Cutlery favour carbon over stainless steel for its ability to take a keener edge and hold it for longer, for this privilege we need to care for our carbon products with a little more consideration, particularly when it comes to washing. Once you’ve finished with your knife we recommend giving it a wash and a thorough dry, as if left wet it will start to rust, surprisingly quickly. If this does happen then take a dry scourer and lightly give it a rub, another rinse and a good dry, it should come off with relative ease. With use you will also notice a light change in the colour of the blade, this patina is natural, beautiful and to be cherished, it’s like yo knife developing its own fingerprint!
And for many reasons - Never put your knives in the dishwasher.
Knives are only available to persons over 18 years of age. Due to the nature of our business ALL customers will be asked to prove their age at checkout.
We ship Tuesday to Saturday using Royal Mail Tracked 24.
All knives ship via an age verified service in accordance with The Offensive Weapons Act 2019, which will mean the postie will need you to be in to receive the delivery & to check your ID if you look under 25.
The law also requires us to carry out a soft age check of the purchaser after checkout, this is done by an automated system that usually doesn't require your input, although we will need to contact you for proof of age if you fail, which can sometimes happen if you use a work address.
of Community Cutlery as a home for enthusiasts, for people who love the ritual of food preparation and who have realised the charm in doing it with quality tools, with items that are as pleasing on the eye as they are practical in the hand.
