Product Description
Small in size, exceptional in precision. The Cangshan KITA Series 2.5" Peeling Knife features a distinctive bird's beak curved blade — the ideal shape for peeling and trimming small, round fruits and vegetables with effortless control. Whether you're turning vegetables, carving decorative rosettes, or fluting mushrooms for an elegant garnish, this knife handles intricate detail work with ease. Forged from 67 layers of proprietary X-7 Damascus steel and hand-sharpened to a razor edge, the hammered blade finish reduces drag and adds visual drama. The signature KITA octagonal G-10 fiberglass handle with mosaic rivet delivers a secure, balanced grip, and the included Saya-style magnetic sheath keeps the blade protected when not in use.
