It has probably the most uses of any other knife in the kitchen, since you can use it to cut large portions, chop or cut from vegetables and fruits to meat and fish. Its wide and curved blade makes it ideal for fast cutting through the well-known motion. The thickness of the blade on the back is enough to give you the weight and power you need, and its length covers a wide range of daily tasks.

Thin and extremely sharp blade Fukaku's blade Ryu is made of 63-layer damascus steel and ATS 314 steel core. It is thin, which makes the knife light but at the same time very sharp, ideal for refined and precise cuts. The damascus blade has a beautiful matte finish which is created by dipping the blade after forging in engraving fluid. Due to this process, the contrasts of the layers on the steel are more visible.

Octagonal handle with unique grip The first part of the knife you come in contact with is its handle. The handle of the Fukaku Ryu is made of maple wood, which is characterized by its natural color and wonderful details. The flat surfaces on both sides of the handle will ensure control and grip and will facilitate cutting in the right direction. Finally, the weight of the handle is very small so that your knife is more front-loaded and offers perfect comfort when cutting.

Made In Japan The Japanese tradition in knife making goes back many years, drawing on the techniques perfected making samurai knives. Today, tradition blends harmoniously with the most modern and innovative techniques for making metal alloys and knives.

Ryusen has devoted a great deal of time to research in the field of construction (forging, hardening, grinding and finishing), as well as to receiving feedback from the professional end user. Their dedication, perseverance and determination only for the best ensure that every knife is perfectly finished and meets the highest requirements of a completely handmade chef knife.

Master of Blades advises you to avoid the dishwasher with every good knife. Hand washing in warm water and quick wiping is enough for any stainless steel knife. Whatever knife you use, at some point it will need sharpening to stay in high efficiency. Soft steel knives need stone grinding more often, but can be returned temporarily with the use of a mast.
