The Kurogane Series is a matched kitchen collection, from one steel recipe, so every blade you add performs and ages alike. Build your own set from the pieces you actually reach for: the Gyuto, a workhorse for proteins and general prep; the Kiritsuke, a chef-slicer for precision push-cuts and clean slicing; the Santoku, a nimble all-round blade for everyday speed; the Nakiri, a flat profile built for fast, full-contact vegetable work; and the Cleaver, for heavier vegetable prep and chopping. Each blade pairs a stainless steel cutting core with a suminagashi Damascus body and a military-grade black G10 Western handle, so a set assembled from these pieces stays consistent in feel, edge behavior, and finish across the board.

Features

• stainless steel cutting core hardened for edge retention for a hard, fine edge that holds through extended prep and resharpens cleanly
• suminagashi Damascus body over the stainless steel core, giving each blade its layered grain pattern and a stiff, resilient spine
• Military-grade black G10 Western handle with a mosaic pin: dense, moisture-resistant, and built for a secure grip during long sessions
• One steel and handle recipe across every blade, so any combination you choose behaves and ages as a matched collection from a single forge
• Pick only the profiles you use, from the versatile Gyuto and Santoku to the task-specific Kiritsuke, Nakiri, and Cleaver, for a kit with no wasted pieces

Build your Kurogane set: choose from the Gyuto, Kiritsuke, Santoku, Nakiri, and Cleaver, each forged to the same stainless steel and Damascus spec with a black G10 Western handle.
