      FAQs

      How does AUS-10 steel perform compared to VG-10 or standard stainless steel?

      AUS-10 offers an excellent balance of toughness, sharpness, and corrosion resistance often preferred for knives that need to handle both fine slicing and heavier chopping. It’s slightly tougher than VG-10, making it ideal for users who want durability without sacrificing edge retention or cutting precision.

      What makes the Kiritsuke blade shape useful for everyday cooking?

      The Kiritsuke hybrid profile combines the long, flat edge of a vegetable knife with the pointed tip of a slicer, allowing you to chop, slice, and perform detail work with the same knife. The gentle curve on the belly also supports rocking cuts, making it a true multi-purpose tool for home cooks and professionals.

      How durable is the resin handle with inlay compared to traditional wooden handles?

      Resin handles resist moisture, warping, and cracking far better than natural wood. The patterned inlay is sealed within the resin, ensuring longevity while keeping the vibrant design protected. Combined with the full-tang construction and triple-rivet support, the handle offers both strength and long-term stability.

      What is the purpose of the included leather sheath, and how should I use it?

      The white leather sheath protects the blade from scratches, chips, and accidental damage during storage or transport. It also helps maintain the razor-sharp edge by reducing contact with other utensils. Always dry the knife thoroughly before placing it in the sheath to prevent moisture buildup.

      What is the return or warranty policy for this knife?

      Chef Supply Co stands by its products and all Chef Supply Co branded products are backed by our limited lifetime warranty. Products not branded Chef Supply Co only carry a 12 month warranty unless the otherwise advised by the manufacturer.

      We cover any faults of materials or workmanship at our discretion.

      Can this knife cut through bones or frozen foods?

      We recommend using a cleaver or specialty knife for bones or frozen items. Using a standard kitchen knife may damage the blade.

      Is this knife dishwasher-safe?

      We recommend handwashing to protect the blade’s edge and maintain the handle’s integrity. Dishwashers can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.

      How should I sharpen this knife?

      You can use a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener. Regular honing maintains the edge, while sharpening restores it when dull.

      What’s the best way to store this knife?

      Store it in a knife block, magnetic strip, blade guard, or sheath to keep the edge protected and prevent accidents.
