Shiro Kamo is another of our blacksmiths from Echizen, Japan. He forges these santokus on a spring hammer and uses top-of-the-line Aogami Super steel for a razor-sharp edge.
The blade is hammer-forged for strength and durability, with a 50/50 bevel grind for precise cuts. The stainless steel cladding adds extra protection, while the traditional kurouchi finish gives the knife both functionality and beauty.
With a Rockwell Hardness of 63, this knife is designed to last and provide reliable performance even under heavy use. Upgrade your kitchen with a Shiro Kamo knife, a true work of art by a master blacksmith.Blacksmith: Shiro Kamo
