These knives are handmade 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 near the handle and tapers 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\u003eWeight: 77 gr\u003cbr\u003eSteel: Aogami#2 with an iron cladding.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBlade root thickness: 3.2 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMid-spine thickness: 1 mm\u003cbr\u003eHeel height: 34 mm\u003cbr\u003eEdge length: 140 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHandle: D-shaped in red sandalwood with pakkawood bolster\u003c\/span\u003e\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, note that certain 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 kuroi ryuu (黒い竜), which means Black Dragon in Japanese.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNOTE: Aogami#2 is a carbon steel that is not stainless.
