Ichigo Ichie KK Autumn Green Black Forged 210 Gyuto - KB54Y

Ichigo Ichie

Handmade 210 Gyuto #KB54Y

This handmade multipurpose chef knife is made of aogami - blue 2 carbon steel, clad in stainless steel. The blade is forged and sharpened in Japan by Kuro Kuma craftsmen.

If you've never owned a carbon steel knife, this blade will impress. While other knives made entirely of carbon steel need regular maintenance to keep them rust and stain free, this knife is much easier to take care of due to its stainless steel cladding. 

An impressive gift.

Ichigo Ichie Series

Ichigo Ichie translates as once in a lifetime encounter. All knives are one of a kind - each blade and handle is individual so you will never come across the same knife again.

These forged blades from Kuro Kuma have a core of Blue 2 carbon steel that has been tempered to high hardness for excellent edge retention. The stainless-steel cladding is lightly textured with the blacksmiths hammer and bears the blackened surface from the forging and quenching process. This helps with food release and the stainless cladding makes for easier maintenance. 

The overall feel is rock solid to give you extra confidence when cutting.

...

Note: We highly recommend camellia oil to protect against rust.
