[HYPER REBORN] Izutsuki Kiya Santoku Black Oxide Finish #3 Carbon Steel 180mm

Izutsuki Kiya santoku.

A santoku is a versatile knife used for preparing meat, fish, vegetables, and many other ingredients. This is an Izutsuki Kiya #3 santoku.

The black areas of the blade have been given a black oxide finish.
A black oxide finish forms a stable oxide layer on the iron surface, helping to inhibit red rust while giving the blade a subdued black appearance.
The rugged black blade and the silver color of the sharpened edge create a beautiful contrast that enhances its presence as a tool.
With continued use and sharpening, the appearance of the black oxide areas will gradually change, which is part of the appeal unique to carbon steel knives.
Because this finish was not applied to a brand-new knife, the depth and distribution of the black color vary depending on the blade's original condition. Please enjoy its one-of-a-kind character.

Made of double-bevel carbon steel and valued for its sharp cutting performance.

Professionally sharpened and ready to use. Sharpening service is included in the price. Please handle with care when unpacking.

Marking: Izutsuki Kiya logo, 木屋 (Kiya), etc.
