Discover the Roselli Japanese Chef Knife in second sorting, where minor visual imperfections on the surface add unique character to each knife.

Product description

Discover the Roselli Japanese Chef Knife in second sorting, where minor visual imperfections on the surface add unique character to each knife. This makes it an excellent choice for those seeking a more affordable premium kitchen tool, offering the same outstanding functionality as our first-hand products.

Experience the precision of our reimagined Roselli Japanese Chef knife with its innovative 2 mm-thick blade design. This medium-sized kitchen knife, inspired by Japanese craftsmanship, is perfect for slicing and dicing in style.

The blade, forged from high-quality carbon steel, offers exceptional sharpness and durability. Its slightly narrower profile, compared to our Small Chef Knife, enhances its precision, making it adept at cutting delicate slices of meat and fish, while the added weight ensures powerful, effortless cuts.

The curly birch handle, treated with linseed oil, provides a secure grip, even when wet. And now, complementing this masterpiece, the knife comes with an exclusively designed leather sheath crafted from authentic Finnish vegetable-tanned leather. This handcrafted sheath not only adds to the knife's aesthetic appeal but also ensures you can carry your treasured tool safely on all your culinary adventures.

Please note that the Japanese Chef Knife in second sorting is delivered without a leather sheath.

Limited pieces available.

  • Excellent craftsmanship!

    I have purchased several knives and and axes with accessories directly from Roselli and from Finnwerk in Germany. I use them myself and have also gladly given them as gifts to the delight of the new owners. The quality of the craftsmanship is excellent. The lifetime warranty and unlimited sharpening service are unique features that other manufacturers do not offer. I can only warmly recommend every single piece of this craftsmanship.

  • Never without my Roselli!

    Never head out without my Roselli, at least one of them. They all hold a good edge. My 19 inch Axe splits firewood like butter and my Grandfather knife is always on my belt, if not my Heimo. Good steel and comfortable wood handles.

  • Roselli Carving knife

    A very nice carving knife. Made from carbon steel. Sharp and I'm sure it is sharp for a long time.

  • Roselli are by far the best!

    I have owned Roselli knives and axes for many years... I probably have 60 knives or more, but the Rosellis are by far the best!

    The Bear Claw, UHC is a knife that I've been looking for. I carry it with me everyday around my neck. It's insanely sharp.

  • The blade is a razor!

    The finish and handling are top notch! The blade is a razor, butchering the boar was a breeze!

    Raf

  • Exceptional knife!

    I recently bought your Big Leuku and I find it to be an exceptional knife. I've used it before to prune a large branch and make wood for a fire and despite having put in some hard work it still cuts like a razor. Fantastic Roselli!

    Franco

  • I own 10 knives from Roselli!

    Over the years, I have bought many knives of various types from various companies. That changed when I got my first knife from Roselli. I was thrilled and realized what a proper knife should look like. Since then, I have had 10 different knives from Roselli, including kitchen knives and also an axe. Amazing quality and craftsmanship. I highly recommend them to everyone.

    Milan

  • Roselli is irreplaceable!

    I have been using Roselli knives for about 2 years. Great for survival, preparing meat and fish, and also good for bushcraft. Roselli's steel is extremely compatible with fire steel. I also love the history of Roselli. For me, Roselli is irreplaceable.

    Kouya

  • Best small bushcraft knife!

    The Carpenter is the best small bushcraft knife I ever had. Beautiful, comfortable, light as a feather, has a very good edge geometry and factory sharpness, and keeps that edge for a long-long time. And when it's time to strop, it takes no time to get that scary edge back. My other purchase was the Hunter. The handle is a bit too big for my hand, but I love the bladeshape very much. I can definitely see why it is such a popular knife! I will probably buy a blade and make my own handle to fit me better. I will definitely get a Carving Knife and a Roselli Axe too!

    Bence

  • I have almost all of Roselli's knives!

    I now have almost all of Roselli's knives and the axe with a short handle, all of them are simply fantastic.
