Over 500 years of their sword making history and technique achieves one of "Best Sushi Chef Knife Maker" in Japan. Masterpiece of Japanese knife beauty! The core of blade is Blue High Carbon steel and both sides are soft carbon steel. Therefore the blade is super hard and the cutting edge is amazingly fine. The handle is made of Roose that makes the more used the better fitted to your hand. ***We Ship Around the World**** ------------------------------------ What's Black Finish (KURO UCHI) Knife? Black finish traditional Japanese knife is made by forge welding soft iron and blue steel together as Kasumi type. The difference between this and Kasumi is- Kasumi has polished finish and the iron of the Kurouchi is left unpolished (Only the bevel and inside of the blade are ground.) that is classic looking, yet it has better rust resistance. Please note that this is not stainless steel, so it still gets rust.
