The Hatsukokoro Kurogane Kurouchi Blue 2 Santoku 6.5" is a versatile handmade Japanese knife that is invaluable in the kitchen thanks to its shape that is ideal for rocking cuts and delivers thin slices of protein, fruit and vegetables.

The Hatsukokoro Kurogane Kurouchi Blue 2 series of knives have a rustic appearance but high-performance. The Blue 2 carbon steel core delivers excellent edge retention and easy sharpening. The soft iron classing adds toughness and balance and the kurouchi finish provides a rustic look. 

The traditional octagonal handle is made with elegant ebony wood. 

Due to the handmade nature of this knife, the colour and pattern of the knife, handle and ferrule may vary from knife to knife.
