A double-bevel gyuto with a kiritsuke (K-tip / reverse-tanto) tip profile — the most commercially prevalent "kiritsuke" sold outside Japan. All the uses of a gyuto with added precision for detail work. The visual identifier is the K-tip (angled spine drop at the front).

Important distinction: When a contemporary artisan or production knife catalog lists "kiritsuke," it is almost always this double-bevel hybrid, not a traditional single-bevel kiritsuke. Traditional single-bevel kiritsuke from specialist Japanese makers must be specified as single-bevel. The functional difference from a standard gyuto tip is real but modest. Extremely popular in the Western artisan market.
