{"product_id":"kurogane-series-knife-set-3","title":"Kurogane Series Knife Set","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Kurogane Series is a matched kitchen collection handmade in Seki, Japan, 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-purpose 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 VG-10 cutting core with a 67-layer 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVG-10 cutting core hardened to 60 ±2 HRC for a hard, fine edge that holds through extended prep and resharpens cleanly\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e67-layer suminagashi Damascus body over the VG-10 core, giving each blade its layered grain pattern and a stiff, resilient spine\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMilitary-grade black G10 Western handle with a mosaic pin: dense, moisture-resistant, and built for a secure grip during long sessions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOne steel and handle recipe across every blade, so any combination you choose behaves and ages as a matched collection from a single forge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePick 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\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuild your Kurogane set: choose from the Gyuto, Kiritsuke, Santoku, Nakiri, and Cleaver, each forged to the same VG-10 and 67-layer Damascus spec with a black G10 Western handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by a lifetime warranty against defects and a 60-day return.
