[General Features] 
Daisuke's Kurouchi Black-finished (Kurouchi) blades are made with an inner core of Yasuki's traditional Hagane --- Shiroko / White Paper No.1 Hard Steel,which has been widely used for a very long time in Japan --- supportedly by a layer of softer persistent steel for an exceptionally sharp and smooth cutting experience.

Of particular note is that he definitely applies "Warikomi" process to make any blade. The Warikomi is an ancient Japanese manufacturing process, (1)split the heated soft steel with a wedge, (2)insert the hagane steel into the soft steel bar, (3)hammer the merged steel bar to form it into a three-layered construction of steel sandwiched by the soft steel.

You can grind it to extreme sharpness, which it retains for a long time. The edge is particularly suitable for the gentle preparation of foods though you need to treat the blade to prevent from rust.

The handle is made of Round-shaped Sakura Cherrywood for beauty and durability. The blade is firmly inserted into the wood handle with ancient method with small gap between the blade and handle at the junction. Needed to dry the knife to keep out moistureafter after use to prevent corrosion.

*** The images in this page are of the sample products. Color, weight, pattern and size may differ because each product is handmade.
*** Please be noted that it may take a few months to restock if the item should not be available, because this series is made-to-order by skilled blacksmiths.
*** The blade surface is protected with silicon oil or vinyl-coating to prevent rust and scratches, which sometimes looks a kind of fouling but never affect the blade itself. Please remove the protective-surface coating before use.
*** Scratches, dents from forging and gap at the junction of handle are not any subject of claim, so please do not buy if you are concerned about them. Because in order to enjoy the traditional techniques from ancient times, the scratches and dents from forging are left as they are. And the gap between the blade and handle at the junction are not been filled with resin on purpose in order not to destroy the traditional feature created by his unique manufacturing method. Enjoy the rustic, wild, traditional style as it is.
