Purpose: Soba Kiri — built for slicing soba dough into perfectly even strands
---
Description Hand-forged in Japan and marked “手作り そば義郎作” (Handmade by Soba Girō), this soba kiri embodies classic Japanese craftsmanship. The blade’s straight edge and rigid spine make it ideal for clean, downward cuts through noodle dough — no drag, no distortion. Perfect for soba or udon prep, but also doubles beautifully for fine chiffonades or sheeted dough work in any pro kitchen.
A no-nonsense traditional tool that feels like something out of a soba-ya in old Edo — weighty, balanced, and pure function.
It's also been sharpened up to be utilized as possibly the most badass vegetable Cleaver you've ever used in the kitchen 😅 ---
Care Keep it dry, keep it sharp, and never leave it wet — this is most likely carbon steel, and it’ll patina beautifully with time.
