Collection: KURO Series - Kurouchi Carbon Steel

The KURO series is a heavy ironclad knife that feels substantial in the hand while the walnut handle is smooth and warm. The White #2 Carbon edge and soft black iron cladding provides a distinctive look as the final layer of iron has an oxide coating to help prevent rust. Heavy and solid, these knives are heavy duty workhorses
