Kasumi Kuro Hammered Damascus Japanese Santoku Knife 170mm
KASUMI KURO Hammered Damascus Japanese Santoku Knife 170mm
Hand-forged in Seki, Japan—a city renowned for its centuries of sword-making heritage—the Kasumi 'Kuro' Santoku is a stunning example of Japanese knife artistry. It masterfully combines two traditional finishes: a Damascus wave pattern and a hand-hammered (tsuchime) texture, creating a blade that is as beautiful as it is functional.
The blade features a high-carbon Molybdenum Vanadium steel core, hardened to HRC 57-58 for exceptional sharpness and long-lasting edge retention. This core is clad in layered Damascus steel, creating the signature 'kasumi' or mist-like pattern along the edge.
- Hammered (Tsuchime) Finish: The beautiful, hand-hammered indentations are not just for looks; they create small air pockets that help reduce food from sticking to the blade during slicing.
- Octagonal Pakkawood Handle: The traditional octagonal handle is crafted from durable black pakkawood, offering a comfortable and secure grip for precise control.
- Versatile Santoku Shape: The 170mm Santoku profile excels at the 'three virtues'—slicing, dicing, and mincing—making it the perfect all-purpose knife for any kitchen.
- Gift-Ready Presentation: Arrives in a premium black gift box, perfect for presentation and storage.
