Why Choose the Kaamut® Kuro Series Nakiri Knife ?
Premium AUS-10 Japanese Steel (3 Layers)
The Kaamut® Kuro Nakiri Knife is crafted from high-quality AUS-10 steel, a premium Japanese stainless steel celebrated for its sharpness, strength, and resistance to corrosion. With a hardness of 60-61 HRC (Rockwell), this steel ensures the blade remains sharp even through intensive use. Its three-layer design includes a hard AUS-10 core surrounded by two layers of stainless steel, offering a perfect balance of durability, flexibility, and resistance to wear.
AUS-10 steel is often compared to other high-end materials like VG-10 but is known for its extra flexibility, making it less brittle and providing greater longevity, even in demanding kitchen environments.
Beautiful Hammered Finish & Unique Black Coating
The Nakiri blade features a hammered finish, a traditional Japanese technique that reduces friction, preventing food from sticking to the blade and ensuring smoother cutting. This visually stunning finish not only adds a touch of elegance to the knife but also improves its cutting performance.
The knife’s unique black coating gives it a modern, rugged look while offering extra protection against rust and wear. The distinct black pattern ensures that each knife is one-of-a-kind, blending aesthetic appeal with practical functionality.
Exceptional Cutting Performance
With its 18 cm blade, the Kaamut® Kuro Nakiri Knife excels in slicing, dicing, and chopping vegetables, herbs, and other ingredients with precision and ease. Its razor-sharp edge makes it ideal for fine, controlled cuts, whether you’re preparing a delicate salad or chopping dense root vegetables. The high-quality AUS-10 steel ensures that the knife glides effortlessly through ingredients without resistance, offering maximum comfort during use.
Ergonomic Ebony Wood & Mkuruti Handle
The knife features a beautifully designed handle made from a combination of ebony wood and Mkuruti, two materials known for their strength, elegance, and exceptional grip. The ergonomic design ensures a secure, comfortable hold, allowing for precise control and reduced fatigue during prolonged use.
The handle’s dark, rich color provides an eye-catching contrast to the sleek black blade, adding a touch of luxury and sophistication to the overall design. The handle’s ergonomic shape fits comfortably in the hand, providing stability and control for both professional chefs and home cooks.
Luxury Wooden Sheath for Blade Protection
The Kaamut® Kuro Nakiri Knife comes with a premium wooden sheath that not only protects the blade from damage but also helps maintain its sharpness over time. The sheath adds to the overall luxurious feel of the knife, offering a safe and stylish way to store it when not in use.
Timeless Design & Luxurious Packaging
This Nakiri knife is not just a kitchen tool; it’s a statement piece. The striking design, featuring the AUS-10 steel, hammered finish, and unique black coating, elevates any kitchen it graces. The knife comes packaged in a premium gift box, making it an excellent choice for special occasions like birthdays, holidays, or anniversaries.

What Makes AUS-10 Japanese Steel So Special?
AUS-10 steel is renowned for its ability to combine hardness with flexibility. It offers:
- High Hardness (60-61 HRC): Ensures a sharp, durable edge that can withstand heavy use without dulling.
- Flexibility: Less brittle than many high-carbon steels, meaning it can endure the stress of tough cutting tasks while remaining reliable.
- Corrosion Resistance: This makes it ideal for use in a kitchen environment, where exposure to moisture and acidic ingredients is common.
This combination of qualities makes AUS-10 steel perfect for high-performance kitchen knives that retain sharpness and resist damage over time.
Handmade Craftsmanship
Each Kaamut® Kuro Nakiri Knife is handcrafted by expert blacksmiths who meticulously shape and finish every blade. This attention to detail ensures that each knife is not only functional but also a work of art. The careful craftsmanship guarantees an exceptional cutting experience and a beautifully finished knife.
Maintenance and Care for Your Kaamut Knife
