Product description

Tojiro Shirogami Kurouchi 27cm Soba Knife The Soba-kiri is characterized by its very wide blade, lack of a typical tip, rectangular shape, and straight cutting edge. However, its unique shape and cutting edge with an unusually lowered chin are dictated by its special specialization – it's a knife used for preparing soba and udon noodles. This shape, with the handle closer to the center of the edge, allows for better force distribution required when cutting a flat, multi-layered pancake into thin threads, as used in traditional Japanese cuisine. Specifications: Blade: Rustic steel, Shirogami #2 core Blade Hardness: 60 HRC +/-1 Blade Length: 27cm Blade Width: 13cm Weight: approximately 860g Shirogami High-quality Japanese knives, based on traditional production processes, allow them to be appreciated both in the comfort of home and in the initial work of professional chefs. The core for making these knives is 3-layered Shirogami #2 rustic steel with a hardness of 60 HRC +/-1. This is the purest of steels, known as "white steel," which has been additionally clad in soft iron, making them easier to maintain and sharpen, giving the cutting edge a perfectly polished mirror-like finish. The finish of the cutting edge is black matte, a traditional knife finishing method called Kurouchi, which gives the blades a unique style and helps protect the carbon steel from reacting with food. Due to the carbon steel, it's important to take care of these knives as they tend to patina and rust. Make sure not to leave them in a humid environment to preserve their properties and continue enjoying their use. Tojiro The Japanese brand Tojiro offers over 800 products manufactured using the best technologies and materials. The combination of excellent Japanese steels such as VG-10, R-2, or Shirogami with beautiful handles made of exotic wood has allowed them to create knives that impress with their sharpness and aesthetic qualities. An expression of their creative passion is Tojiro's patented original method for preventing steel decarburization (DP - Decarburization Prevention). Their products have repeatedly received the Good Design Award, presented by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry of Japan (MITI).
