Uncover the meaning of 'Kiritsuke'! Originating from Japanese language, it translates to 'slit open'. This versatile knife's long and tall blade, paired with its sharp and straight edge, as well as its angled 'reverse tanto' tip, is perfect for various tasks in Japanese cuisine. Whether it's finely slicing vegetables or preparing glossy slices of raw fish for exquisite sashimi, the Kiritsuke is an all-rounder. It is also ideal for cutting vegetables and slicing fish, similar to the Usuba and Yanagiba knives. Additionally, it can be used to thinly slice or portion boneless proteins like chicken. However, remember that it is not a substitute for a Chef's Knife or Gyuto, and must be used for its unique purposes.
