Shirasagi Aogami #2 Kurouchi Kiritsuke Deba 150mm

Introducing Shirasagi by Toru Tamura and Naohito Myojin for Hatsukokoro.

This Shirasagi line is made with Aogami #2 carbon steel for incredible edge retention and has a very rustic Kurouchi finish. We're used to seeing traditional single bevel knives in Migaki or polished finishes. The Kurouchi finish and Wenge handle add a very warm touch to this knife. 

Naohito Myojin has long been an expertly rated knife sharpener who is known for being the go-to sharpener and finisher for Konosuke knives. He spent a long 10 years perfecting his craft before also training to be a blacksmith. With both of these disciplines under his belt, Myojin-san has established himself as an incredibly talented knife maker and sharpener. 

Please keep this knife clean and dry to prevent any rusting.
