Kuro-uchi refers to a traditional method originating in the Edo period, where the surface of the blade is intentionally left unpolished, retaining a black oxidized film. Traditionally, kuro-uchi knives were made from steel, which, while offering excellent sharpness, was also prone to rust. We have now succeeded in creating kuro-uchi knives from rust-resistant stainless steel.\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis technological innovation has resulted in a groundbreaking series that combines the authentic sharpness of a Japanese knife with the ease of maintenance for home use.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cwhat knife=\"\" santoku=\"\" a=\"\" is=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/what\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Santoku knife is widely used in general households.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIts name \"santoku\" (three virtues) comes from its ability to handle meat, fish, and vegetables, and it is also called an all-purpose knife because of its versatility.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhile petty and gyuto knives have slim blades, santoku knives are designed to be wider.
