High quality, extremely collectible handmade knives since the 1800s.
SHOP CASE KNIVESRefined in design and relentless in performance, the Cangshan Kuro Series 6" Chef’s Knife is built to handle demanding prep work with surgical precision and style. Whether you're breaking down vegetables, trimming meat, or tackling herbs and aromatics, this mid-sized chef’s knife offers a versatile, agile blade that feels right at home in any kitchen—indoors or out.
Forged from premium X-7 steel, the blade features 67 layers of striking Damascus cladding that not only provides exceptional durability but also adds a touch of visual drama to your culinary setup. It undergoes Cangshan’s ULTRA6 heat treatment process, reaching a Rockwell hardness of ~60, which ensures long-lasting edge retention, improved strength, and excellent resistance to wear and corrosion.
Each knife is hand-sharpened by skilled artisans to a precise, razor-sharp edge that glides through ingredients with ease. The full tang construction delivers outstanding balance and control, allowing you to slice, dice, chop, and mince with confidence and minimal fatigue.
The handle is a study in craftsmanship and functionality—crafted from black G-10 fiberglass with a faux wood grain design and sculpted in an octagonal shape for a secure, ergonomic grip. Finished with a single stainless steel mosaic rivet, it brings an ornate yet rugged detail that elevates the overall aesthetic.
Included with the knife is a custom magnetic ashwood sheath, offering sleek protection for the blade during storage or travel. Whether you’re tossing it in a drawer, taking it to a campsite, or storing it neatly on the counter, the sheath preserves the blade’s edge while complementing its premium materials.
This is a blade for those who expect more from their tools—those who demand precision without compromise and design that doesn’t cut corners. Order it today from SMKW!
