Handmade by our friend Kuya Mokit from Indonesia — a maker who genuinely improves with every passing year. You can see the evolution firsthand: tighter tapers, cleaner edge sanding, more controlled grinds, sharper finishes, and cladding that’s become more refined and intentional with each new build. He’s the kind of smith who never stays still; every knife is a step forward, and it truly shows.
This Kiritsuke is the perfect example. It blends the classic kiritsuke profile with a subtle Hakata-style back bend, giving the blade a stance and silhouette that’s instantly recognizable. The core is T10 carbon steel, hardened for crisp, lasting sharpness, and it’s wrapped in a dramatic Damascus cladding with a Copper Shim that adds warmth, contrast, and movement. Thin behind the edge, smooth through food, and visually striking from every angle — this is a true one-of-one, fully handmade, with its character built right into the steel.
A functional art piece from a maker who keeps pushing his craft further every year.
