Stacked Product Description and Specs

Discover the Yoshihiro Kurouchi Stainless Clad Knife, a unique blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern metallurgy. Unlike typical Kurouchi knives, this exceptional blade features a Kurouchi finish on stainless cladding, combining rustic aesthetics with the durability of stainless steel, resulting in a low-maintenance yet stunning tool.

The term Kurouchi means "black-forged," referring to the unpolished, rustic finish that characterizes this knife. Our Kurouchi Stainless Clad Knives are expertly crafted with two layers of full Kurouchi stainless steel, offering unmatched durability while preserving exceptional sharpness.

With a Rockwell hardness of 62-63, the inner core of Blue Steel #2 ensures high edge retention, keeping your blade sharp for extended periods. The stainless cladding enhances moisture resistance, allowing for superior performance without the concerns of high-carbon steel.

Designed for versatility, this knife features a handcrafted octagonal Ebony wood handle, suitable for both left and right-handed users. It includes a lacquered Magnolia wood Saya cover for safe storage. Whether dicing fresh produce or carving a roast, the Yoshihiro Kurouchi Stainless Clad Knife elevates your culinary experience, merging beauty and functionality seamlessly.
