Japanese Sobakiri Knife 300mm Kiremono 切れ者 kitchen knife

The Japanese Sobakiri Knife 300mm "Kiremono" (切れ者)" is a highly specialized, hand-forged kitchen knife designed primarily for cutting soba (Japanese buckwheat noodles) with exceptional precision, though it is equally outstanding for any task requiring an ultra-thin, razor-sharp blade.


Forged from premium MV stainless steel (a high-performance Japanese cutlery steel known for excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and ease of sharpening), the 300 mm-long blade is extraordinarily tall and thin, allowing the chef to make perfectly straight, clean cuts through blocks of freshly made soba in a single smooth draw. The name “Kiremono” (literally “sharp person” or “cutting expert in Japanese) perfectly reflects its outstanding sharpness and cutting performance.
