Nakamura Blacksmith Kurouchi Santoku 150mm

Knives I love to use

I ordered a 150 mm santoku knife (crafted by Master Toshio Nakamura) and then a 165 mm curved bunka (handcrafted by Masters of Nakamura Hamono family). The 2 knives are both well balanced and great to use. I also appreciate the sharpening stones that come with the knives. Thank you all for your commitment !

Terrific knife !

I love the way it cuts but I do wish it was easier to care for. Still, it really knocks out the work when dealing with a lot of chopping!

Feedback on My Order

Yes, I have received my order safely, and I am very happy with it. The knife exceeded my expectations. I was pleasantly surprised by its weight — it is light, perfectly balanced, and feels very comfortable in the hand. I personally really enjoy working with this knife; it makes food preparation smooth and enjoyable. As a small suggestion, it might be helpful to include a short guide on how to properly sharpen the knife on a whetstone so it can serve well for many years. I believe this would be especially valuable for customers who are new to traditional Japanese knives. Overall, I am very satisfied with my purchase and truly appreciate the craftsmanship. Thank you again, and please share my appreciation with the team.
