First Impressions

The Vg10 Steel Core That Makes Up The Cutting Edge Of This Knife Is Heat Treated By Only The Best Metalsmiths At Masakage. Their Experience Means That These Knives Are Made Of The Best Material They Can Be.

Clad In Stainless Steel To Protect The Core From Corrosion This Range Offer The Best Of Both Worlds. The Sharpness Of This Blade Has To Be Sampled To Be Believed And It Will Retain That Edge For What Seems An Age, Again Thanks To That Super Hard Vg10 Core. Amazing Performance To Go With Those Amazing Looks. Bliss.

Beauty

Just Look At Them, Look! Each Knife Is An Individually Manufactured Unique Work Of Art. The Stainless Steel Cladding Is Layered Multiple Times (To Create An Effect Called Damascus Steel) Around The Vg10 Core Which When Ground To Taper The Blade To Make The Edge, Reveals The Many Layers To Create The Cloud Like Effect You See Here.

The Dark Rosewood Handles Are Capped Off With A Pakka Wood Bolster And Both Have An Octangular Shape.

These Knives Are Certainly Eye Catching And Will Lift Any Kitchen Which Is Honoured With Their Presence.

In Hand

The Handles On These Knives Are Octangular, Which Sounds Like They Would Be Uncomfortable But They Really Aren’T. The Handles Are Very Light Which Leads To The Balance Of The Knife Being Towards The Front. If Used With A Pinch Grip It Just Works. Chopping Takes No Effort Due To The Sharpness Of The Blade.

Durability

The Vg10 Core Will Keep This Knife Very Sharp, The Stainless Cladding Will Keep It From Rusting, The Handle Is Firmly Attached To The Blade (Using Century Old, Tried And Tested Methods). This Knife Is Going To Last A Long Time. Like Most Of Our Knives, Treat It With Respect And Care And It Will Repay You With Many Years Service.

Ease Of Care

Use, Wipe, Dry And Store. Our Golden Mantra On Knife Care Is All You Really Need To Follow. Using A Ceramic Sharpening Rod Every Few Weeks To Keep That Edge Super Keen And A Yearly Whetstone Session (Don’T Worry We’Ll Show You How To Do It) And You Are Done.

Our Verdict

Every Blade Is Unique And The Finish Is Incredible.

Formerly Made In Small Batches By Katsushige Anryu And Now Continued By His Nephew Takumi Ikeda These Really Are A Treat And While Not The Cheapest, We Have No Hesitation In Saying That The Kumo Range Is Still Worth Every Penny!
