Muneishi Kurouchi Gyuto 24 cm Aogami

The 240 mm Muneishi Chef's Knife is characterized by its versatility. It can be used for most kitchen tasks.

Muneishi kitchen knives are a professional series, recognizable by the precise profile of the blade. This is all thanks to the use of a unique production technique called Warikomi. It involves the use of soft iron cladding surrounding a hard core made of Aogami #2 carbon steel. The knives achieve the right hardness through a hardening process, and ultimately reach 63-64 HRC. Thanks to hardening and heat treatment, Muneishi knives are easy to sharpen. In addition, they remain sharp for a long time. The black Kurouchi finish gives the knives a unique, raw character. The oval handle of these knives is made of cherry wood and finished with a very nice red ferrule.

After each use, Muneishi knives must be properly cared for. They must be washed and dried to prevent rusting.
