Product Description
Product Description
KASUMI knives are made using the traditional Japanese technique of swordmaking which has been handed down from generation to generation to the present day. The main cutting edge of a KASUMI knife is made of V-Gold No. 10 carbon stainless steel that has been developed especially for knives. The blades are hardened to Rockwell C59 - 60 degrees, and therefore keep a sharper cutting edge longer than most other knives. The KASUMI Damascus pattern you see on both sides of the knives is the result of repeated folding and forging of fine stainless steel into multiple layers. KASUMI means haze or spring mist that you would see on mountains or rivers, which describes the damascus pattern on the blade. Each knife is carefully finished throughout each step of the manufacturing process by the hands of skilled craftsmen. The beauty of the KASUMI pattern together with the strong black laminated wooden handles makes these knives look graceful, yet strong, and good for any style of cooking.

I bought this for a friend who loves cooking and he is over the moon with it. Apparently it cuts like a dream and looks like a work of art.
