Shiro Kamo always delivers knives with the highest possible performance. The blades are thin and can easily be sharpened razor-sharp. In this series, Shiro Kamo has used stainless powder steel SG-2 hardened to 62-63 HRC. Around the core of the powder steel are several layers of softer steel, giving each knife a unique and beautiful pattern (called Damascus steel).

This knife is made entirely by hand, boasts supreme quality, and features a classic Japanese design.

NOTE: This knife series has extremely thin edges made of very hard steel. They are therefore very sensitive to stress. Be extra careful when cutting so that the edge does not encounter too much resistance and get damaged.
