Experience the craftsmanship of authentic Japanese traditional knives, meticulously hand-forged by adept artisans. The unique kurouchi finish, with its hammered texture, not only captivates the eye but also exemplifies the blade's quality.
This knife features a core of Shirogami (white #2) carbon steel, known for its exceptional edge retention and ease of sharpening, clad in soft iron for added durability. To maintain its pristine condition, a light coating of oil will protect the carbon steel from rust. The blade's single bevel and Urasuki grind on the reverse side cater to precision cutting. It boasts a magnolia wood handle shaped into a traditional D-profile designed for right-handed users. Crafted with pride in Japan.
