Product Details
Sized for the longer Kiritsuke blades, 9.5" (240mm) and 10.5" (270mm), this ebony handle with a water buffalo horn bolster is the traditional choice for Yoshihiro's sword-tip chef's knives and a straightforward replacement for a worn handle.
This handle pairs a Yoshihiro ebony wood body with a water buffalo horn bolster. Ebony is a dense, fine-grained hardwood valued in Japanese knife handles for its deep black color and smooth finish. Water buffalo horn is a natural material, so its color varies from piece to piece, making each handle one of a kind.
It's built in the traditional octagonal Japanese handle shape and is available for blade lengths of 9.5" (240mm) and 10.5" (270mm). This listing is for the handle only; the knife blade is sold separately.
