🐉  KAIJU: AWAKENING – Hybrid Kiritsuke Knife

The legend returns — refined, re-forged, and alive with energy.
KAIJU: AWAKENING continues ITAMAE’s Atelier Collector's Blades series with a focus on balance, precision, and restrained power.

Forged within ITAMAE’s Atelier, the Kaiju: Awakening represents evolution in both design and craftsmanship.

Each blade is clad in carbon-steel Damascus with an SK85 high-carbon-steel core, delivering hardness, durability, and a responsive cutting feel.

An S-grind geometry minimizes drag for smoother food release, while the acid-etched finish brings out the natural contrast of the layered Damascus pattern.

At just 2.5 mm thick at the spine, it achieves a confident rigidity without excess weight — ideal for both chefs and collectors.

Balanced, functional, and distinctly ITAMAE — this is a collector’s blade made to be used and admired.

Specifications

• Blade Type: Hybrid Kiritsuke (8 inches)
• Cladding: Carbon Steel Damascus (acid-etched finish)
• Steel: SK85 High Carbon Steel
• Geometry: S-Grind
• Thickness: 2.5 mm at spine
• Handle: Stabilized Wood + Green Resin
• Saya: Rosewood with Pin Lock
  

Important Note:
Because of its high-carbon-steel core, this blade can rust if not cared for properly.
Always dry it immediately after use, apply a light coat of tsubaki (camellia) oil, and store it in a dry place to maintain its condition.

Bonus: Every Kaiju: Awakening knife includes free laser engraving — personalize it with your name, initials, or message.

Please note: each knife features a unique Damascus pattern and resin tone, ensuring no two are identical.

Only a few will ever hold it. 

The Shenron is forged in limited numbers, with each piece crafted to embody the power, precision, and presence of a weapon worthy of reverence — or daily use, if that’s your call. We won’t judge.

At its core lies SK85 Japanese high-carbon steel, chosen for its incredible hardness and edge-holding ability. It’s clad in stainless and Damascus shim, combining strength, sharpness, and stunning contrast.

But what truly sets this blade apart is its handle — a work of art on its own. Each piece is manually carved by hand into synthetic ivory, depicting a fierce dragon in full detail. Accented with brass and a single turquoise ring, the handle balances elegance and grit. The knife rests in a custom-fit rosewood saya that completes its striking silhouette.

Whether you mount it on a wall or keep it in rotation on your prep board, this is more than just a knife. It’s a conversation. A collection. A choice.

Highlights

• SK85 High Carbon Steel Core — built for precision, sharpened for performance
• Damascus + Stainless Cladding — stunning layers with functional strength
• Individually Hand Carved Dragon Handle — every one slightly different, deeply personal
• Brass & Turquoise Accents — symbolic and bold, without being loud
• Rosewood Saya (Sheath) — for storage, travel, or display
• Extremely Limited Release — few pieces made, no two identical

For those who demand something different.

Some say it takes all seven to summon true power — but maybe, just one is enough.

Kaiju - Limited Collector's Blade

Unleash the beast.

The Kaiju is an 8-inch collector-grade blade forged for chefs and enthusiasts who crave power, precision, and exclusivity. Crafted with a clad Damascus carbon steel + nickel body and a SK85 high carbon steel core, this knife delivers unmatched sharpness and edge retention.

Its handle is made from a striking fusion of resin and stabilized wood, encasing a miniature Kaiju within—no two are ever the same. Each knife is a one-of-a-kind piece, with unique patterns, hues, and grain that make it truly personal.

Important Note:

Due to its high carbon steel core, this blade is prone to rust if not cared for properly. Always dry the blade immediately after use,  add oil to the blade (tsubaki oil) and store it in a dry place to preserve its condition.

Bonus:

Every Kaiju knife comes with FREE laser engraving—add your name, initials, or message to make it truly yours.

Limited release. Unique in every detail. Built for those who dare to wield it.

 Please note: Each individual knife will have a unique pattern and color on the steel and handle (no two knives are identical)
