Handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, this chef’s knife features a Blue II carbon steel core wrapped in elegant SAN MAI stainless steel cladding, combining elite sharpness with modern durability. If you love the precise performance and timeless appeal of fine carbon steel, this knife will quickly become the centerpiece of your collection.
⚙️ Shun Narukami Series – “Thunderbolt” Design
Named “Narukami” (meaning “thunderbolt” in Japanese), this series represents the perfect fusion of traditional Japanese craftsmanship and high-performance materials. The Blue II carbon steel core provides exceptional sharpness and edge retention, while the stainless SAN MAI cladding enhances corrosion resistance and visual appeal.
Over time, the blade naturally develops a dark patina, a hallmark of quality carbon steel that protects the edge and adds unique character. The ergonomic, contoured handle ensures comfortable balance and complete control, allowing every cut to feel deliberate and precise. ⚡
As with all carbon steel blades, proper care is essential—simply clean and dry immediately after use to maintain the integrity of your Narukami knife for years to come.
