Vegetable Cleaver Knife - KYOKU Shogun Series

The Shogun Series by Kyoku Represents the Apex of Modern Japanese Cutlery

The Kyoku brand was inspired by the honor and integrity of Japan's master bladesmiths, who applied their skills to cutlery with unprecedented innovation after the decline of the samurai in 1868. Our mission is to make high-end Japanese cutlery affordable for professional chefs and home cooks worldwide, driven by a passion for culinary creativity.

Crafted with Unparalleled Excellence

The Shogun Series, the pinnacle of Kyoku's offerings, is manufactured with 67-layered stainless Damascus steel, ensuring superior durability for hardcore chopping and slicing needs. This 7" Japanese-style cleaver knife is an excellent, medium-duty option that is highly versatile, perfect for preparing fish, boneless meats, vegetables, fruits, and leafy greens.

The Shogun Series is the apex of modern Japanese cutlery, crafted with cryogenically-hardened VG-10 steel wrapped between Damascus steel folded 33 times. This process results in an ultrafine edge that resists corrosion and outlasts the competition.

Cryogenic Strength and Superior Design

Each Shogun Series blade undergoes the traditional 3-step Honbazuke method of cryogenic treatment, ensuring incredible hardness, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. The hollow-edge design prevents food from sticking to the blade, making it practical for everyday use.

Kyoku's custom knives are meticulously crafted using time-honored sword-making methods, resulting in a thinner, harder, and sharper blade than Western-style knives. We blend ultramodern technology with ancient craftsmanship to create a scalpel-thin blade edge with powerful non-stick performance.

Beauty and Functionality

The Shogun Series' exclusive appearance is accented by a hammer-beaten wave pattern that gives way to a traditional Damascus steel design. The ergonomic, triple-riveted G10 handle is artistically accented with an engraved mosaic pin, revealing the knife's luxurious identity.

The full-tang construction, with the metal blade extending the entire length of the handle, allows the Shogun Series to withstand punishing daily use without sacrificing comfortable handling and balanced performance.

Unparalleled Cooking Experience

The Kyoku Shogun Series is the pinnacle of modern Japanese cutlery, blending ancient craftsmanship and ultramodern technology to deliver an unparalleled cooking experience. With its cryogenically-treated VG-10 steel, stunning Damascus design, and ergonomic, durable handle, the Shogun Series is the ultimate choice for discerning chefs and home cooks alike.
