5Cr15MoV Stainless Steel Blade

Protective Leather Sheath
A custom leather sheath keeps the Tetsuya safely protected during storage or travel and makes it easy to carry from kitchen to campsite.

Solid bit of kit. Does the job it’s meant to do without any fuss. The leather sheath is handy for keeping it safe in the drawer.
Joe Wood (verified owner) –
Handle fits my hand really well, no hot spots even after prolonged use. Blade came razor sharp and has stayed that way.
Georgia (verified owner) –
It’s a decent knife. Does what it says on the tin, chops meat fine. I suppose I was expecting a bit more for the money? The finish is nice and it came well packaged, but it’s just a good knife, nothing special. Does the job though.
Gaz Patel (verified owner) –
Came really well packaged, no issues there. The blade is super sharp out of the box, used it to portion a whole lamb shoulder and it didnt struggle once. Rosewood handle looks the part.
Nic Evans (verified owner) –
Brilliant knife, exactly what I needed. Used it to break down a whole lamb shoulder and it made light work of it. The hand-hammered finish does seem to stop stuff sticking as much. Cant believe the price to be honest, feels way more expensive.

So I’ve been using this daily for prep in my home kitchen for about 3 weeks now. It’s a massive upgrade from my old supermarket cleaver. The rosewood handle feels solid in the hand and the blade just glides through meat and veg. Arrived next day which was a bonus.
Mel Davies (verified owner) –
Really nice knife overall, does the job perfectly. My only minor thing is the handle shape, its a bit blocky for my hand so took a day or two to get used to. Once I did though its been great for chopping through chicken bones and the like. Would recommend.
