KURO Series
"Kuro", the name of this series comes from "玄人(Kuro-to)". It means "Professional". The blade is made from Blue Steel Super, the pinnacle of hardness in high carbon steels. This means superb sharpness and very long edge retention. As this hardness means sharpening takes longer, we recommend our Kuro series to professionals who understand carbon steel knife usage maintenance and are experienced with sharpening Japanese knives. Anyone can use this knife, but an expert will truly shine with it.
