Cangshan Kuro Series 8" Sashimi Knife With Sheath 504227

Built for precision and control, the Cangshan Kuro Series 8" Sashimi Knife delivers unmatched slicing performance wrapped in rugged elegance. Whether you're carving holiday roasts, slicing through delicate raw fish, or presenting paper-thin cuts of cured meats, this knife brings razor-sharp refinement to every serving task.

The long, slender blade is forged from high-performance X-7 steel and clad in 67 layers of Damascus, creating a swirling, rippling pattern that’s as visually striking as it is tough. Each knife is honed by skilled artisans and undergoes Cangshan's ULTRA6 heat treatment, resulting in a blade that scores ~60 on the Rockwell hardness scale. That means edge retention you can count on and slicing precision you’ll appreciate with every use.

Its full-tang construction gives the blade the backbone it needs for high-pressure cuts, while the narrow, tapered shape ensures fine control for clean, even slices—ideal for showcasing the natural texture and beauty of meats and fish. The razor-sharp edge glides through poultry, roasts, and sashimi with minimal resistance, keeping the integrity of each slice intact.

The octagonal handle is made from durable G-10 fiberglass, offering long-term stability and a moisture-resistant surface that won't warp or crack. With its black and grey faux wood grain design, the handle brings understated sophistication to the rugged functionality of the blade. A single stainless steel mosaic rivet anchors the aesthetic and speaks to the knife’s handcrafted quality.

To protect the blade and showcase its beauty, the knife includes a matching magnetic ashwood sheath. Perfect for kitchen drawers or outdoor travel, this sheath secures the blade firmly in place while allowing quick, easy access when it’s time to get to work.

Whether you're carving a perfectly roasted brisket or slicing sashimi-grade tuna, the Kuro 8" Sashimi Knife stands ready with dependable strength and refined sharpness. It’s the knife you’ll reach for when presentation and precision matter most. Order yours today from SMKW!
