Profile

Kuro Kuma Yonaka 165 Santoku

Hammer forged carbon steel multipurpose knife that excels in chopping.

Kuro Kuma Yonaka are seriously sharp blades handcrafted from Blue #2 carbon steel. The finish is a smooth matt black and the edge is sure to impress.

Made by hand, the colour of midnight
Walnut handles with morado wood bolster
Seriously sharp
Core of Blue #2 carbon steel, clad in matt black iron
50/50 edge grind suitable for left and right handed users.
After testing many carbon steel blades, we have not found a higher quality carbon steel knife in this price bracket

Note:

As the handle is natural wood, colour and grain of wood will vary from the photos.
Carbon steel blades will change colour and tarnish over time. Carbon steel is prone to rust if you leave it wet, so to maintain it dry and ideally oil the knife before putting it away. The black finish helps protect the blade from rust.

If you prefer a carbon steel knife with stainless steel cladding look at the Moriguchi Nero santoku.

Care Instructions

Never put in the dishwasher.
Do not cut through bones, frozen foods or extremely dense items.
This knife is 100% carbon steel, due to the nature of carbon steel this knife will tarnish and form a patina. This is to be expected and is nothing to worry about. The patina also helps protect against rust.
Do not leave wet on the bench or the knife may rust. Dry thoroughly after washing and do not store unless fully dry.
Always cut with a smooth action and never twist the blade, sideways pressure will damage the blade.
Use Japanese waterstones to sharpen your knife.
We highly recommend camellia oil and rust cleaner for maintenance.
