Kasumi Tora knives are meticulously handmade in Seki, Japan, using the expertise of skilled craftsmen who follow traditional Japanese sword-making techniques. Each knife is finished by hand, ensuring exceptional quality and attention to detail throughout the manufacturing process.
The cutting blade is constructed from high-carbon molybdenum vanadium steel, which provides a sharp, rust-resistant edge that is easy to maintain and sharpen. The handle is crafted from magnolia wood and treated with a black epoxy cure, offering a lightweight, comfortable, and well-balanced grip. The Santoku knife in this collection features a thinner blade than a traditional chef's knife, with a gradually rounded tip that creates a straighter edge. This design makes the Santoku knife ideal for cutting thin slices of meat and fish, offering precision and ease for various culinary tasks.
