After hard work and many trials we are now excited to present you our Naruto Series. Our goal was to create a beautiful as well as high performing and budget friendly series of knives, which are very sharp, light weight and also easy to sharpen. That is why this series is hand-forged only by very experienced blacksmiths, who created a new standard of craftsmanship.
For this knife a three-layer composite steel is used which is shaped by hand before being heat treated using the traditional techniques of master blacksmiths. It is a repeated manual forging and quenching process, which results in a hardness of 58±2 HRC, thus creating the conditions for extreme knife sharpness. The elaborate forging process is finished with hammer blows for optical reasons and a hand sharpening of the blade.
The non-slip octagonal handle is crafted from rosewood and is ergonomically designed so you can have long cooking sessions without feeling exhausted afterwards.
Nakiri - that's what they call a vegetable slicer in Japan. And as the name suggests, the traditional Japanese knife is ideal for chopping vegetables and herbs. Its shape is reminiscent of a cleaver, but should not be confused with it. With our noble Naruto Nakiri knife, far Eastern aesthetics and tradition enter your kitchen.
All in all this knife is a beautiful piece of handmade art, so make sure you clean and dry the knife immediately after usage to ensure it lasting for a lifetime!
