Hand forged in Echizen Japan with White 2 high carbon steel, these are something very different to what we normally see in single bevel knives. Kuro (black finish with tsuchime (hammer tone) is normally not seen in this realm, especially at this price point. Something we have been chasing for years and super happy to present here.
Handles and finish level are a little lower than other single bevels but heat treatment is great with high sharpness potential

*High carbon steel kitchen knives will change colour (patina) during use, care is required to prevent surface rust.
