K-tip kitchen knives or kiritsuke-modified knives are more popular than ever, with that sharp pointed tip and ability to cut precisely.
Learn more about this traditional Japanese kitchen knife, but be sure not to confuse this with the single-bevel traditional kitchen knife also called kiritsuke.
It is a bit confusing, isn’t it?

stronger tip is my main reason its a go to.
Thanks, Brad. So is a Sakimaru tip a subset (or modification) of the K tip?
Be sure not to confuse this with the single-bevel Kiritsuke knife in itself. That's different again!
