Would you like to equip yourself with high-quality cooking equipment? The Yuzo Black Nashiji knife range is the ideal choice! These artisan knives are handcrafted by Japanese blacksmith Kouichi Tsurumaki for authentic results. This master craftsman has decades of experience in the cutlery industry, and has developed his forging techniques to perfection. To produce the blade of the Yuzo kiristuke knife, he has created a San Maï structure with a core of carbon-enriched Japanese Shirogami #2 steel (approx. 1.2%). As a result, the hardness of your bunka knife is 61HRC on the Rockwell scale: it's a high-performance, long-lasting blade that's easy to preserve with a Sharpening stone! These Japanese knives have been given a Black Nashiji finish, similar to brute forging, for an authentic, traditional style. The handle of this carbon knife is made of durable, moisture-resistant rosewood. It is complemented by an ebony bolster set with a micarta ring for an elegant result. Cut in an octagonal shape, it is suitable for all cooks and offers an ergonomic grip for comfortable use. Discover many Japanese kitchen knives with character on KnifeLeader.eu!
