About the Heritage Edition
The Heritage Edition set of Japanese kitchen knifes is a tribute to traditional craftsmanship, designed for purists who value the authenticity of a handmade knife.
This carefully curated trio—a versatile 8-inch Japanese chef’s knife, a nimble 6-inch utility knife, and a precise 4.5-inch paring knife—forms a complete cutting system for any kitchen.
Each blade is hammer-forged from high carbon steel (5Cr15MoV) steel, shaped in the classic Japanese profile for effortless precision. The full tang construction ensures strength and balance, while the KuroWood handle, secured with a chrysanthemum mekugi, provides a comfortable and secure grip.
From delicate peeling to intricate prep work and powerful slicing, the Heritage Edition family is designed to work in harmony, giving you the right tool for every task.
