Named after the Japanese word for "illumination," the masterfully crafted, award-winning knives in this set are distinguished by their stunning birch PakkaWood handles and "hornet's nest" pattern. Extraordinarily sharp with a long-lasting edge, each blade has micro-serrations that reduce friction and slice through steak, keeping more of the flavor-rich juices inside. These steak knives also double as multipurpose utility knives.
