my style.
Kitchen knife maker since a bit more than 10 years full Time.
focused on Kuruchi blade, forged to geometry,
I mainly use soft iron for cladding ( the outside layer) called XC10, sometimes I can use old iron or wrought iron.
satin finish or kasumi finish.
maybe we need a glossary…
my STeel.
i am basically using one kind on steel,
very simple hi carbon steel clean as possible with no alloys.
-145sc , the OG
-125sc the lil’ brother
and since few weeks I have Shirogami 1 from Hitachi.
all that quenched in water reach 65HRC after proper heat treatments.
do we need to talk about prices ?
I've received a lot of questions about my pricing.
It's actually very simple — starting April 2025, here’s how it works:
For 125SC: €2.20 per mm
For 145SC: €2.50 per mm
For Shirogami: €2.40 per mm
For Kasumi blades: starting at €80, depending on blade size.
The per-millimeter pricing applies to blades under 270mm.
