Knife Making - Kiritsuke || Japanese Kitchen Knife 

looks nice do you have templates

Sometimes this is just what I need. A nice video, doesn't matter if from Koss or from TysyTube but a simple video where stuff is created or repaired. No voice just the process and it's sound. And sometimes I just want to grab a coffee and walk into my own little workshop and just start doing what they do. It's a beautiful hobby

The wood on that handle is gorgeous.

I know that many people have said this already but there’s not only the shape which determines the knife but also, a purpose. The reason why those knifes look like that have this exact shape, a single bevel and no secondary bevel is that they are used for three things only: to peel off the skin from the fish, to cut sashimi and to make fish wraps for sushi rolls. These operations are made with the knife lying flat on the unbevelled side and you make only one cut which should be perfect. For that you need the proper bevel angle on the edge of the blade. Otherwise, you’ll tear the soft fish meat. The perfect knife for that should be made out of the layered steel with enough flexibility on the spine and really hard edge. It means you have to make a hamon when you quench it, or even forge weld the high carbon core inside the low carbon jacket. For Japanese, a knife is not so far away from the sword and is often made similarly. Also, as others say, it have to have roundness at the point finger rest for comfort. You can cut the paper with this knife but what about its main purpose? What was made is just a pretty looking kitchen knife which has a shape resemblance to the proper one for the job it can’t do properly. Also, I would add that the shoulders’ joints where the blade meet the tang should not be right angled. Make them round or at least 100-110 degrees, because such angles are the weak points of the blade and it can be easily broken there with enough force applied. When you peel off the fish skin you push on the knife, so it keeps the skin down to the cutting board and separates the flesh from it. That’s why it requires spine flexibility, and the evenly hardened knife with right angled shoulder joints will have a lot of stress and eventually break during this operation.
