Masuda White 2 Kurouchi Kiridashi 24mm, Japanese kitchen knife
This knife is a Japanese kitchen knife built for clean, precise cutting. The blade is a practical everyday length. Forged by Masuda with a kurouchi finish, it pairs hard, keen Japanese steel with the thin grind and balance that let the blade glide through food with less resistance. The forged carbon steel takes a keen edge and gains character with use.

Care and everyday use
It is at its best for everyday kitchen tasks. This is a carbon-steel blade, which takes an exceptionally keen edge but reacts with food and water. Hand wash and dry it immediately after use, wipe on a light coat of oil before storage, and expect a natural patina to form over time. Keep it off bone and frozen food, and sharpen on a whetstone to bring the edge back.

Best knife I have owned. Effortless push cuts and the food just falls off the blade.

Lovely knife and a joy to use. A little more blade care than my stainless knives but worth it.
