    Why Use KIREAJI Knives

    KIREAJI knives are an incredibly important tool, especially for sushi chefs. Equipped with a sharp blade, these knives cut through the fibers cleanly, allowing the flavors of the ingredients to shine through with a lighter taste, free from any bloody flavor. In contrast, a knife with poor sharpness tears and crushes the fibers, resulting in a heavier taste with a stronger bloody flavor.

    KIREAJI knives are the ideal choice for achieving delicate dishes while maintaining excellent sharpness. The performance of the knife allows chefs to bring out the true essence of the ingredients, elevating the overall quality of the dish. In this way, KIREAJI knives serve as the perfect partner for sushi chefs, enhancing the taste and appeal of the ingredients.
