This Chitose three piece Japanese knife set contains a santoku knife, nakiri knife, and deba knife - making it the perfect starter set for anyone wanting to cook with Japanese knives. Each knife features a traditional Japanese wooden knife handle, as well as an ultra sharp and durable molybdenum vanadium steel blade - making these knives the perfect balance between sharp and durable.

The nakiri knife is a traditional Japanese knife designed only for cutting vegetables, so it’s often called a Japanese vegetable knife. Their large blade size makes them great for cutting bulky vegetables like Chinese cabbage and pumpkin, and their straight edge makes them great at uniform cutting.

Deba knives are thick and heavy, and ideal for dressing and filleting fish. Their large, sharp, single-bevel blades can cut right through fish, and their sharp points and slice cleanly through the soft flesh. The heel of the blade is also commonly used for cracking through the shellfish like crabs and lobsters.

And santoku knives, the most common knife in Japanese kitchens, are all-purpose knives for general cooking. Whether you're cutting vegetables, fish, or meat, the santoku can handle most tasks with its extremely versatile sheepsfoot blade.

With these three knives in your arsenal, you’ve got most kitchen tasks covered. Not only is this a great starter set for yourself, it’d make for a fantastic gift!
