Kurouchi, which translates to "Black-Forged," represents a unique forging technique that imparts a distinctive look and an unpolished rustic aesthetic finish to the blade. Our Yoshihiro Kurouchi Stainless Clad Knives stand out as exceptional examples of modern metallurgy, featuring a Kurouchi finish on stainless cladding. This innovative development allows for the traditional aesthetics of a Kurouchi blade without the maintenance challenges associated with high-carbon steel, making it a rare and difficult technique to forge.

Crafted with two layers of full Kurouchi stainless steel, these knives provide both durability and protection without compromising their sharp cutting edge. The inner core of Blue Steel #2 boasts a hardness of 62-63 on the Rockwell scale, prized for its high edge retention, ensuring an exceptionally sharp edge that maintains its performance over extended periods. The Kurouchi Stainless Cladding makes the blade more forgiving to moisture exposure while preserving superior sharpness and durability.

Each knife is complemented by a handcrafted Octagonal Ebony wood handle, designed for comfort and usability for both left- and right-handed users. To enhance the knife's protection and aesthetics, it comes with a Magnetic Oak wood Saya Cover, providing easy and safe storage. Whether you're dicing fresh produce from a farmer's market or carving a roast chicken from the oven, even the simplest culinary tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that seamlessly combines beauty and functionality.

The knife features a stainless steel cladding that ensures durability and resistance to corrosion while retaining a sharp edge. The Blue Steel core is renowned for its exceptional sharpness and edge retention, making it ideal for professional chefs who demand precision in their cuts. However, while most of the blade is stainless steel, the exposed Blue Steel edge may rust if not properly cared for. It is recommended that chefs regularly dry and oil the blade after use to prevent oxidation.

Elevate your culinary experience with the Yoshihiro Kurouchi Stainless Clad Knives, complemented perfectly by the Custom-Cut Saya Knife Cover—where traditional craftsmanship meets modern innovation for a knife that is both exquisite and practical.

Bulky
I was a little disappointed in how bulky these were and seemed hard to get on. If you can get past this they do seem to work good. Hands do seem softer and a bit healthier.

Really moisturizes hands
These gloves really work. My cuticles and hands alway seem dry. I used these gloves the first night I received them and my hands were really smooth afterward. When I get in bed at night, I play on my computer and iPad, and these gloves are perfect. The end of the index finger is designed to be used with a phone, computer, and iPad. Make sure you push the end of the fingers on the gloves all the way down to the end of your fingertips; otherwise you will not be able to use them with a device. I find they work better with my iPad than my computer. I have not tried to use with my phone. The gloves are not uncomfortable, but I found they are not comfortable to wear all night, so I just try to wear them about an hour every night. I wish I had these gloves about 20 years ago and my hands would probably look like a 20 year old.

So much pain
I had to remove these after less than 5 minutes as they caused such intense pain. The gel clings to your skin even with the lotion and tightens around your hands cutting off circulation. They have been off for about half an hour and my hands still hurt. I was so excited as I really like this brand in general. Very disappointed. Be very aware when buying.
