These knives are hand-made from Aogami#2 carbon steel, and Shiro hardens them to an impressive 64 HRC. The blade has a dark finish, known as kurouchi, and a D-shaped handle. The blade is tapered, meaning it is thickest closest to the handle and narrows towards the tip. The knives in this series have a brutal appearance, while the edge is very thin and delivers unparalleled sharpness with excellent cutting properties. This is one of our most popular knife series!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCarbon steel is not stainless, and aogami#2 is no exception. However, the black kurouchi finish provides very good protection against rust and patina. The lower part of the blade will patinate significantly more easily than the black part. Therefore, wipe the knife dry after use. Also, be aware that some ingredients (citrus, tomato, etc.) have a strong visual impact on the blade.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe call the knife \u003cem\u003ekuroi ryuu\u003c\/em\u003e (黒い竜) which means Black Dragon in Japanese\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/x5nwAiPh3j4?si=XqxCoWyEzfN60SGZ\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" title=\"YouTube video player\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTE: Aogami#2 is a carbon steel that is not stainless.\u003c\/strong\u003e Even the iron sides of the blade need to be kept dry to prevent rusting over time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Shiro Kamo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57775347958108,"sku":"G-404","price":157.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1023\/5556\/6940\/files\/G-404_new_1.jpg?v=1780314056","url":"https:\/\/stage.cleancut.eu\/products\/shiro-kamo-black-dragon-gyuto-220mm","provider":"Cleancut","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
