Bring serious versatility to your kitchen with the Sea Creature Series 21cm Kiritsuke Chef Knife. Designed with a distinctive K-tip profile, this blade combines the versatility of an all-purpose chef knife with the pointed tip of a Kiritsuke for more controlled, detailed cutting.
The 45-layer Damascus blade with an AUS-10 core gives the knife its distinctive layered appearance, while the colourful Sea Creature resin handle makes every piece a standout. At 21cm, it gives you plenty of blade length for everyday chopping, slicing, and dicing without feeling oversized.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Sea Creature 21cm Kiritsuke best used for?
AUS-10 is a Japanese stainless steel known for its combination of edge retention, toughness, corrosion resistance and ability to take a fine edge. Compared with standard stainless steels commonly used in kitchen knives, AUS-10 is generally positioned as a higher-performance knife steel. VG-10 is another Japanese stainless steel with similar characteristics, although the exact performance of each knife also depends on its heat treatment, blade geometry and edge design.

VG-10 is another Japanese stainless steel with similar characteristics, although the exact performance of each knife also depends on its heat treatment, blade geometry and edge design.
What makes the Sea Creature Kiritsuke blade shape useful for everyday cooking?
The Sea Creature Kiritsuke combines a relatively straight cutting edge with a pointed tip, making it suitable for controlled chopping, slicing and precision preparation. The pointed tip can also be useful for detailed tasks such as trimming and making precise cuts.
Can the Sea Creature Kiritsuke be used for both meat and vegetables?
Yes. The 21cm Kiritsuke is designed for a range of kitchen preparation tasks, including slicing boneless meat, chopping vegetables, dicing ingredients and mincing herbs. Avoid bones, frozen foods and twisting or prying movements, as these can damage a fine kitchen-knife edge.
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.
