Santoku knife 170mm Matsubara White #1 - Kurouchi Finished, Walnut Handle
The santoku knife for all occasions with Kurouchi finish.
This hand-forged santoku from Matsubara is ground on both sides and has a matte Kurouchi finish. Kurouchi is a special type of finish that is not atypical on Japanese knives. The surface is carbonized and therefore black. This blade finish significantly improves the resistance and corrosion resistance of the knife, in addition to creating this rustic aesthetic. The core of the blade is made of White #1 steel. White #1, or Shirogami 1, is a steel made by Hitachi and is extremely popular with Japanese chef's knives, as it brings ideal characteristics for a sharp blade. The steel (Hagane) can be brought to over 65 HRC depending on the hardening process, which allows the blade to be ground very sharp. A layer of softer, non-stainless steel is welded around the blade core using the San Mai method. The softer carbon steel on the blade blade not only protects the inner steel core, but also gives the blade a degree of flexibility.
At 170 mm blade length, this chef's knife has all-around qualities. The knife has a slight radius to the blade tip and can be easily used for vegetables such as onions, leeks, carrots, etc. in a cradle cut. The knife is suitable for professional and amateur chefs who are looking for an all-purpose knife with a medium-sized blade and an unusual but traditional design. Matsubara knives are perfectly balanced and allow for optimal cutting. The chef's knife is forged by Tanaka-san from the Matsubara forge in Japan.
