Tosa Kiyokane Santoku, 180 mm

This Japanese santoku knife has a core of Japanese Aogami # 1 carbon steel with a protective layer (Sanmai) on the outside. This double-sided sharpened knife has a black (Kurochi) protective layer. This knife is completely hand-forged by the master blacksmith Kiyokane from Tosa and is unique in its kind. The blade is very thin and manually sharpened and has no thickening, making sharpening very easy. This blade is forged and sharpened by hand and may have some scratches or irregularities, the edge might need some polishing to create a real sharp edge. The handle is made from plastic and has some residual marks from the production process.
