Sakai Takayuki Kasumitogi Yanagi 270mm (10.6")
- In stock, ready to ship
Description
The kasumitogi line is a reasonably priced line of traditional forged knives which work well for first-time users as well as more experienced chefs. These knives are hand forged from Yasuki White Steel in the ‘kasumi’ method of joining carbon steel and a soft iron jacket. White steel knives hold a good edge and are easy to sharpen. The U shaped magnolia handles and water buffalo bolsters are comfortable and easy to grip, even through long hours of kitchen use.
Please note: This knife is made from carbon steel, which gets incredibly sharp and is easy to sharpen but requires additional maintenance. This knife should be kept clean and dry at all times and oiled when not in use for an extended amount of time. Carbon knives can be reactive with high acid foods.
*These knives are single edged and are for right-handed users. Please contact us for pricing on left-handed models.
