The Kori Artisan 8" Chef Knife is an ideal multi-purpose knife. Specifically shaped and designed in Canada to excel at nearly every task in the kitchen, the chef knife is great for chopping, slicing, mincing, dicing, julienning, you name it. The wide belly allows you to get a rocking cut for quickly cutting up vegetables or herbs. And with the angled bolster design on the Kori Artisan, you get full use of the blade and ease of resharpening. The extra wide blade offers much greater clearance between your knuckles and cutting board when compared to most competitors

Canadian designed Kori Artisan knives are handcrafted for beauty, function, and superior performance. Taking over 60 steps to complete each knife, Kori Artisan uses advanced materials and crafting techniques to ensure your knives last you years. Each blade features a Japanese VG10 core, surrounded by 36 layers of hammered steel to create that beautiful layered Damascus pattern. The final point of contact is the handle. Using a beautiful, riveted linen micarta handle, the texture provides the ultimate tactile sensation and control. It is completed by a traditional mosaic pin and end cap.

Keep your Kori Artisan knives sharp and well-maintained by sharpening regularly using a traditional Whetstone.
