"Kurohada" translates to "black skin," referring to the dark, textured appearance of the blade's surface. This distinctive texture is achieved through the Tsuchime technique, where the blade is hammered to create small, irregular dimples on its surface. These dimples not only enhance the knife's aesthetic appeal but also serve a practical purpose by reducing food adhesion to the blade, making slicing and chopping more efficient.

This versatile Kiritsuke knife excels in slicing sashimi and dicing vegetables with precision.

The Kurohada Tsuchime Kiritsuke Knife - a true culinary gem, crafted from Aogami Blue Super Steel and with a stunning Rosewood handle, is renowned for its remarkable durability and sharpness.
