Haiku Kurouchi 8 1/2″ Ko-Yanagi

CHROMA HAIKU Kurouchi knives meet all the requirements of a TAKUMI knife. Upon delivery, the blade already possesses a breathtaking keenness, and, as with all TAKUMI knives, by regrinding with a good grindstone, its cutting capacity can be raised to a level that is practically unattainable for traditional kitchen knives. A “sandwich construction”, produced with a core made from extremely hard, blue AOKO steel which is subsequently protected by softer layers of iron, makes it possible to achieve an optimal hardness of 61° HRC at the cutting edge.
