By popular demand, the Ryuhyo Kurozome collection is now available as a complete 5-piece set, bringing together the 240mm Kiritsuke, 210mm Kiritsuke, 180mm Bunka, 150mm Petty, and ceramic honing rod.
Handcrafted in Echizen, the Ryuhyo Kurozome knives feature a striking Damascus suminagashi pattern over a deep black Kurozome finish. Under the right light, the blade surface reveals a subtle sparkle reminiscent of a dark night sky—refined, understated, and unmistakably premium.
At the core of each knife is SG2 (R2) powdered steel, hardened to approximately 63 HRC for excellent edge retention, crisp cutting performance, and long-lasting sharpness. Their ultra-thin geometry places them firmly in the “laser” category, allowing them to glide effortlessly through ingredients with minimal resistance.
