This is the first of a run of special hard Kurouchi shiny Damascus. It’s a damascus in soft iron and contrasting material, With a nice twist, forged out either c105 at the core.
The heat treatment and prep is incredibly detailed, and the furnace conditions to allow nice clean layers in amongst the ku iron oxide is exacting.
This was the very first piece in a higher layer batch, I think subsequent pieces will have the effect clearer still. But this one looks so nice buffed out, it has a special beauty all of its own with details and textures showing everywhere like a molten material.
This is a stiff yet thin mid weight knife with a beautifully blended to super thin lower bevel, cuts like a dream and an all round performer.
I put a very handsome wa with black palm and micro stainless spacers.
The bevel has a very nice finger stone polish, enough to begin to show those subtle hazy layers between the the iron.
Thanks for looking.
