Description

keyboard_arrow_down
add remove

There's a commanding presence to a blade built for heavy work. The Kogarashi Bone Chopper brings serious weight and a broad edge to the toughest kitchen tasks, its titanium-plated, stone-washed finish giving each piece a bold, weathered character.

The burnt white oak and red G10 handle offers a substantial, confident grip built to match the blade's power.

Forged from a custom 67-layer Damascus steel around a 7Cr17MoV steel core and hardened to 56-58 HRC, the blade holds a robust 27°±1 edge designed for chopping through resistance.

Unlike finer kitchen knives, this one is purpose-built for chicken with bone, duck ribs, pork feet, fish heads, and other hard foods that a standard chef's knife shouldn't touch.

Kogarashi - Bone Chopper Knife Damascus 7.3"

Bought this as a retirement gift for a colleague who loves to cook. She was genuinely emotional. The packaging alone made it feel like a special occasion, and the craftsmanship spoke for itself when she took it out of the box.

Kogarashi - Bone Chopper Knife Damascus 7.3"

Absurdly sharp. Caught a knuckle on day one because I forgot how little pressure it needs. Entirely my fault, entirely worth it.

The wooden handle is warm and lovely to hold, much nicer than plastic.

This is the first properly made knife I have owned and the difference is night and day. Everything is faster, cleaner, and more precise.

Frequently asked questions

How do I care for and maintain my knife?

keyboard_arrow_down
add remove

Hand wash with warm water and mild soap immediately after use, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Never put your knives in the dishwasher; the heat and harsh detergents will damage both the blade and the handle.

Store them in a knife block, on a magnetic strip, or with blade guards to protect the edge.

How often should I sharpen my knives, and how?

keyboard_arrow_down
add remove

With regular home use, honing with a ceramic rod every few weeks keeps the edge aligned, and a full sharpening every 6 to 12 months restores it completely. A whetstone at around 1000/3000 grit is the best option for maintaining the fine edge these blades are known for.

Are these knives suitable for beginners or only for professional chefs?

keyboard_arrow_down
add remove

They're designed for both. The balance and lightweight feel make them comfortable for home cooks, while the edge retention and precision are what professionals look for. If you're new to high-quality knives, the main adjustment is learning to let the blade do the work instead of applying pressure.

Does it come in packaging suitable for a gift?

keyboard_arrow_down
add remove

Yes. Each knife ships in a protective presentation box, so it's ready to give as-is without needing any extra wrapping. It's a common choice for weddings, housewarmings, and anyone getting serious about cooking.

Is the handle comfortable for long prep sessions?

keyboard_arrow_down
add remove

Yes. The handle is shaped to sit naturally in the hand and the knife is balanced so the weight doesn't pull forward. That balance is what prevents wrist fatigue when you're prepping for a while, and it's one of the biggest differences you'll feel compared to a cheap knife.

What if I'm not satisfied with my knife?

You're covered by a 30-day risk-free trial. Use it, cook with it, and if it's not right for you, send it back for a full refund. The knife is also backed by a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects.
