Veark KDM08 Forged Kudamono knife
Category: Knives
A Kudamono knife is the traditional Japanese small kitchen knife, "Kudamono" means "fruit" in Japanese, so a Kudamono knife is a small, sharp knife used for peeling and cutting fruits and vegetables. It is essentially a Japanese paring knife, designed for precise work with fruits and other produce.
The KDM08 is part of our fully forged collection of knives. It is drop forged from a single piece of stainless steel by experienced craftsmen in the respected town of Solingen, Germany.
The idea for the collection was drawn from the belief that the knife is a tool - maybe even the most essential tool in the kitchen. We took visual cues from the world of traditional metal tools to create a unique signature that is both visually appealing and highly functional.
The drop forging process leaves each knife with an individual pattern on the handle. A beautiful detail that makes each knife unique while serving as a reminder of the honest craftsmanship that went into its making.
All our forged knives are fully symmetrical and 100% suitable for left- and right-handed use 🤝🏽.
