Hammered and forged by hand, the dense blade structure maximizes the characteristics of Blue Steel No.1 — exceptional sharpness, outstanding edge retention, and easy re-sharpening. The thick 7mm spine provides the weight and authority needed to split fish heads, break down poultry, and cut through semi-thawed frozen foods with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eKurouchi Craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe Kurouchi finish — a black oxidized layer left from the forging process — protects the blade and gives each knife a distinctly rustic, handcrafted character. As a hand-forged product, minor variations in size and surface are a natural expression of its making, not a defect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eCare \u0026amp; Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBlue Steel requires attentive care. A rust-preventive varnish is applied at the factory — sharpening the blade will remove it and reveal its true cutting performance. Wipe dry immediately after use and store in a dry place. Hand wash only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Material: Blue Steel No.1 \/ Soft Iron (Kurouchi Finish)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Length: 165mm (6.5\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Width: 53mm (at base)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBlade Thickness: 7mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOverall Length: 305mm (12.0\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHandle Length: 133mm (5.2\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eWeight: 325g (11.5 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBevel: Double-Bevel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eHandle: Walnut \/ Round Shape\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBrand: Motokane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eOrigin: Tosa, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Motokane Knives","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45917528588487,"sku":"MK001D","price":128.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/6217\/3383\/files\/motokane-blue-steel-no-1-deba-knife-front-view.webp?v=1777633932","url":"https:\/\/kyotolux.com\/en-us\/products\/handcrafted-aogami-steel-nakiri-knife-6-5-inch-165mm-from-sakai-japan-motokane-knives","provider":"KyotoLux","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
