Knife not included

  • The 9-inch Honing Steel features a half-grooved and half-smooth finish.
  • Forged from 67 layers of Cangshan proprietary X-7 Damascus Steel.
  • The grooved, coarse side of the steel is used for regular maintenance, to realign the microscopic teeth on the blade’s edge.
  • The smooth, fine side of the steel is used to finish the edge with a few swipes of the blade after honing on the grooved side.
  • For average use, the grooved side can be used weekly, and the smooth side, daily. Regularly honed knives will retain their edges longer before needing to be sharpened.
  • G-10 fiberglass octagonal handle
  • Hand wash only

    A Knife That Earns Its Place on the Cutting Board

    After spending time with the KITA Series 8-Inch Chef’s Knife, I can confidently say it’s a knife built for both performance and craftsmanship.

    The balance feels exceptional in hand, making everything from breaking down proteins to everyday prep comfortable and precise. The High Carbon X-7 Damascus steel takes an incredibly sharp edge and holds it well, giving you confidence through every cut.

    Beyond the performance, the fit and finish are outstanding. The Damascus pattern is beautiful, but this knife is much more than good looks—it’s built to be used. I also appreciate the included sheath, which is a great addition for chefs who travel or want to protect their investment.

    Whether you’re a professional chef or a passionate home cook, this is a knife you’ll enjoy reaching for every day.

    Excellent small Nakiri

    Great small knife- excellent balance and functionality. Very sharp and really like the magnetic sheath. Have lots of Cangshan and really like it.

    Beautiful & functional

    This knife is super sharp right out of the box. I made razor thin carrot slices with almost no effort. The pieces didn't get all stuck on the blade. I can already tell this is going to be a workhorse. I wasn't sure if I'd like the edges on the handle but it's comfortable. The magnetic cover feels substantial, something actually worth keeping. Beautiful presentation in the box.
