Kasumi is a knife that comes from the Sumikama forge, located in Seki (Japan). The impressive Damascus knife is considered the highest standard and has become a true classic for all those who have special demands on a knife. Seki itself can look back on 780 years of history in the cutlery industry. The swords made here were already unique in Japan due to the hardening method used. In combination with the artistic sophistication, the cutterbars quickly became collectors' items with well thought-out functionality worldwide. Instead of preserving the status quo, however, people quickly remembered to continuously develop the traditional processes and pass on the techniques of sword manufacture from generation to generation. This is exactly what characterizes the production of Kasumi to this day, which is proven by their excellent cutting ability and extreme hardness. The Sumikama manufactory in the center of the Japanese archipelago has an extremely comprehensive wealth of experience and brings with it the necessary technical know-how, which has so far been unchallenged. Exactly for this reason, Kasumi knives have earned a permanent place in our range.

What is special about a Kasumi?

A Kasumi knife is a traditional Japanese knife made using the "Kasumi" technique. The word "Kasumi" means something like "cloud" or "mist", which refers to the blade surface. In this process, two different types of steel are brought together in multiple layers during a complex process. Inside the Kasumi knives there is a hard steel core, which is encased in a softer material. This ensures that the inner core is protected, but the cutting edge remains very flexible. The famous blacksmith Sumikama sometimes also makes other knives. The high quality ones Damascus knives are hand-forged and of unique quality.

How are Kasumi knives made?

Kasumi uses 32-layer high-quality Damascus steel. After the forging process is complete, the blade is heated to over 800°C, cooled and hardened to 59-60°C Rockwell. The hardness of 60±1 HRC ensures a special robustness, a long edge retention as well as an excellent sharpness and guarantees a simple regrinding of a Kasumi if necessary. The fine polish after repeated grinding gives the Kasumi even better gliding ability through the cuttings and, in combination with a handle made of black Pakka wood, ensures an exciting look.

This is what you can expect from Kasumi knives

The Kasumi Kuro knife combines decades of experience in the manufacture of Kasumi knives with advanced technologies. The Kasumi is still made by hand in the same way as traditional Japanese swords. Molybdenum-vanadium stainless steel, which has a high carbon content, is used for this. The elegant Damascus pattern on both sides of the blade of the Kasumi knife is the result of repeated folding and forging in several layers. Even if the pattern is typical of damask knives, the traditional Japanese design gives a Kasumi a very special look, which is impressively complemented by the robust, black wooden handle. Among other things, we carry the Kasumi Kuro chef's knife made of damascus steel, which can be used universally as a real all-rounder in the kitchen and glides effortlessly through any type of meat, fish and vegetables.
