The mirror-like polish catches the light while the hammered finish keeps that more traditional handcrafted character alive, giving the knife a premium look without feeling overly flashy or artificial.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eForged from VG10 stainless steel hardened to approximately 61 HRC, the Kagami series was designed to be a true high-performance daily driver. Thin behind the edge with excellent cutting feel, strong edge retention, and solid corrosion resistance, these knives deliver serious performance while remaining approachable and easy to maintain for everyday kitchen use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the first things that stood out to us when these arrived was the overall finishing and cutting performance. Rounded spine edges, smoother choils, cleaner polish transitions, and noticeably better comfort in hand make them feel far more refined than many typical VG10 production knives. After testing them extensively at the shop on a wide range of ingredients, we came away genuinely impressed by how cleanly and effortlessly they move through food.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular 1 of 1 piece was assembled here at Kakushin onto a custom handle built around a rich red padauk wood base, paired with a smoky grey translucent epoxy tip. The contrast between the warm red tones of the wood and the cooler, almost mist-like transparency of the epoxy gives the handle a completely unique character, shifting subtly depending on the light and viewing angle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a final touch, every blade is traditionally hand engraved with the Kakushin Kanji, adding another layer of individuality and ensuring no two knives ever feel completely identical.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween the polished Migaki finish, textured Tsuchime Damascus, high-performance VG10 core, and its one-of-a-kind Kakushin-assembled handle, this Kagami is a knife built to perform every day while still feeling entirely its own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Assembled in Canada 🍁","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51703359537385,"sku":null,"price":550.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/4368\/6711\/files\/KagamiCustomSmokedEpoxyPaddockGyuto210mm.png?v=1787350216","url":"https:\/\/kakushin.ca\/products\/kagami-custom-smoked-epoxy-paddock-gyuto-210mm","provider":"Kakushin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
