Kikuichi Kuro Carbon Steel Knife

The KURO series features a heavy ironclad knife that exudes a sense of weightiness when held, with a smooth and warm Walnut handle. The blade is crafted from White Carbon #2 core with a soft black iron cladding, giving it a unique appearance. Known for its durability and solid construction, these knives are reliable workhorses in the kitchen.

To prevent rusting, the blade is coated with black oxide, a result of the heat treating process. The cutting edge is polished, creating a Kurouchi finish that is meticulously hand engraved with the Kikuichi chrysanthemum logo. The blade is made from White Carbon Steel 2 core and soft iron on the outside, ensuring high quality and performance.

With a Kasumitogi grade rating, these knives are expected to last 4 to 6 years with proper care. The bevel angle ratio of 50/50 provides a balanced and sharp edge for precise cutting. It is important to note that the blade may rust if left wet, as it is not made from stainless steel.

In conclusion, the KURO series offers a combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern techniques to create a reliable and visually striking knife that is perfect for everyday use in the kitchen.
