Product Details
This handle is designed to fit Yoshihiro Kiritsuke knives. Kiritsuke knives combine traits of a gyuto and a yanagi in one all-purpose blade.
This handle pairs a Yoshihiro ebony wood body with a water buffalo horn bolster and three decorative rings set into the collar. 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 7" (180mm), 8.25" (210mm), 9.5" (240mm), and 10.5" (270mm). This listing is for the handle only; the knife blade is sold separately.
