Naoki Mazaki WS2 Black Nashiji Japanese craft knives

The WS2 Black Nashiji range of handcrafted knives arrives on KnifeLeader.eu! These Japanese knives are forged by Naoki Mazaki, the talented young blacksmith based in Niigata province. These are top-of-the-range Japanese knives whose particularity lies in the finish given to their blades. They feature a superb Black Nashiji finish, reminiscent of a rough-hewn forge. The tops of the blades are black and have a slightly rough feel, giving them a rustic, authentic look. The blades of these handcrafted WS2 Black Nashiji Japanese knives feature a San Maï structure, with a core made of top-quality Shirogami #2 steel with 1.3% carbon. With a hardness of around 62 HRC, the blade of your Japanese chef's knife has a durable, high-performance cutting edge. As Naoki Mazaki is also a master sharpener, he has personally sharpened the blade of your knife on several whetstones to give you an impeccable edge. WS2 Black Nashiji handcrafted Japanese knives feature a dense, warm-tone ebony handle. It is robust and crack-resistant. The ebony is complemented by a superb black horn bolster that brings harmony and balance. A delicate micarta ring elegantly separates the two materials. The octagonal shape of the handle makes ws2 black nashiji knives ideal for long use, and suitable for both right- and left-handed users. Opt for these top-of-the-range Japanese kitchen knives! You'll also find WS2 Polished craft knives on our website!
