With a combination of great steel and amazing grinding, shaping, and sharpening work, these knives are easily among the best single bevel knives I have used. The spines and choils are also nicely rounded and polished.  These also feature a mirror polish on the front face of the knife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKiritsuke are designed to combine the function of usuba and yanagiba, and, as such, require proficiency with both to use effectively.
