Carbon steel Kitchen knife

€148.00

This knife has a blade crafted from XC100 carbon steel, a high-carbon alloy known for its razor-sharp precision and exceptional edge retention.

Most of my Japanese-style knives feature a cork collar at the front of the handle. Chosen for its natural softness, it feels comfortable and secure where the thumb rests. It creates a smooth transition between hand and blade while creating a tight seal at the base of the blade.
