Shun Narukami

The ultimate performance of a carbon steel cutting core meets the beauty and benefits of Sanmai stainless steel cladding in the Shun Narukami Series.

If you swear by the performance of a carbon steel knife, this knife is for you. 

Narukami, which means “thunderbolt” in Japanese, is designed for professionals and for those who appreciate the unique qualities of fine carbon steel cutlery. 

Narukami’s Blue II carbon steel cutting core takes and holds a razor-sharp edge then re-sharpens easily when needed. Like all carbon steels, Blue II requires additional care to prevent rust and corrosion from forming on the carbon steel core.

Cleaning and drying immediately is key. Over time, the edge will darken, developing a patina which, when formed, will also help protect the edge. Full-tang construction and riveted handles ensure a lifetime of service from this multi-skilled knife.
