First knife that I have received. 14cm. I ordered this particular knife because I had never seen water quench kurochi finish. It did not disappoint. The color is unbelievable, blues very subtle colors in the finish not the standard black. Workmanship is exceptional. I liked it so well I went ahead and ordered the 17 cm version as well. In total, I have four knives ordered. And I have received two. The other one being the Tamahagane 17cm which I received today. I can say that the Tamahagane made of Japanese jeweled steel. Very rare and the knife is an absolute work of art. It really is gorgeous. This Smithy group takes pride in their work eighth generation going back as far as the EDO period and Certified katana Swordsmiths You can’t go wrong. I’m very happy with my purchases and I highly recommend all of them. Buy as many as you can. I can tell everything that they do screams experience, knowledge, and heritage. Support the Japanese craftsman. Special thanks to Mari for communicating well. And I look forward to getting my last two knives which are the 17cm kurouchi And a NAKAMURA HAMONO CURVED BACK 'BUNKA' KITCHEN KNIFE. Which I have never seen before with the curved back. Very rare and a Nakamara original design. Hopefully I can review those as well. Overall, the great experience. Shipping exceptionally fast. No problems with the order. Highly recommended to order from any of the craftsman. A++++++++
The knife is super sharp 👌 and well crafted,
Very happy 😊.
Cool stuff ありがとう ございます
This is a superb knife which I enjoy using.Extremely sharp and the weight of the blade is almost enough to slice some items by itself.The blade has an attractive hamon and the steel has a delightful aroma when rinsed in cold water.I enjoyed watching the craftsmen forging the blades and hope I can maintain it correctly.
Beautiful blade. Very well polished and sharp.
