JCK Original Kagayaki CarboNext Series KC-3 Santoku 180mm (7 inch)

Our innovative KAGAYAKI CarboNext product range uses next generation carbon tool steel that we call “CarboNext”. Our CarboNext blades allow you to enjoy all the usual advantages of traditional high carbon steels (i.e. Excellent edge sharpness, excellent edge retention and ease of sharpening), but they offer the additional benefit of improved rust resistance.

The blade is made of solid CarboNext special high carbon tool steel that is hardened to HRc. 59-61. The knife features superb fit and finish, full tang construction, and comfortable black pakkawood handles. Its thin blade has a slow gradual taper and is finely ground, which results in excellent cutting performance and blade balance.
Because this knife offers greater rust resistance and ease of maintenance than regular high carbon steel knives, we particularly recommend CarboNext Knife to first-time users of carbon steel knives. Professionals and serious amateurs will love their superb blade geometry, cutting performance and quality construction.

The tall blade and rounded nose / tip of the Santoku make it a versatile knife that is well suited to cutting meat, fish, or vegetables; Hence it’s name, which literally means “Three-purpose”. The Santoku is often recommended as a multi-purpose kitchen knife.

Characteristics and Difference of Regular Version and ES Version

Both Regular Version and ES version are hand sharpened by skillful and experienced Master Craftsman.

Hereby we introduce the characteristics and difference of Regular Version and ES Version.

  • Regular Version has good enough sharpness and you can start using it without sharpening process and enjoy good cutting performance. One of the benefits for choosing the Regular Version is you can re-sharpen and make your own final sharp edge by yourself for your own cutting needs and preference. Advanced, Experienced and serious users can understand how important it is and this benefit.
  • ES version has much steeper and thinner edge which makes outstanding and maximized cutting performance. We have received many requests from our customers for the fully sharpened edge knives when they start using the knives. This is our recommendation for your needs.

Acerca de la versión para zurdos

Master Craftsman modifies edge shape and bevel for left hand use by hand sharpening process at the following additional cost:

  • Petty + US$6
  • Santoku, Gyuto + $10

Left handed versions are normally in stock for immediate shipping. However, when it became out of stock, please allow 3 to 6 days for shipping.

For your information, many of the Japanese Kitchen knives come originally with double bevel edge sharpened 70/30 (face side/back side) for Western style knives. This geometry came from Japanese Traditional knives with single bevel edge and Shinogi blade construction. This is one of the special features and reasons why Japanese knives have an excellent cutting performance.

Sin embargo, esta geometría de filo 70/30 está diseñada para el uso de la mano derecha, por lo que tenemos un servicio para modificarla a 30/70 para los usuarios zurdos con un proceso de reafilado por parte de artesanos expertos.

Instrucciones y mantenimiento

Information About The Care & Maintenance of CarboNext Knives
While our CarboNext knives have better rust resistance than other plain carbon steel knives, they will discolor and rust if not cared for properly. To keep your knife in good condition, please do not leave it in wet or salty conditions for a long time. After hand washing the knife, we recommend that you carefully rinse the knife with plain warm water and dry it with a clean cloth. It is important to make sure that there is no water left between the blade tang and the handle, or bolster, because this can lead to corrosion.

Creemos que la calidad y el rendimiento de corte de los cuchillos japoneses son los mejores del mundo, y esperamos que disfrute de la fina artesanía y del filo de su nuevo cuchillo. Con los cuidados adecuados, cada cuchillo japonés debería ser su compañero de cocina especial durante mucho tiempo.

Importante

Este es el cuchillo de cocina de hoja de acero al carbono que puede oxidarse y decolorarse con facilidad, y requiere un cuidado y una atención extra para evitar la oxidación.

  • Por favor, no introduzca el cuchillo en el lavavajillas para su limpieza.
  • Por favor, no deje el cuchillo en el agua o en condiciones de humedad durante mucho tiempo.
  • Después de usarla, lave a mano la hoja, el cabezal y el mango, y límpiela y séquela con ropa suave. Aplique aceite Tsubaki a la hoja y guárdela en un lugar seco.
  • Este es un cuchillo extremadamente afilado. Por favor, tenga especial cuidado al usarlo y guardarlo.
  • A diferencia de los cuchillos de fabricación alemana, las hojas de los cuchillos japoneses se afilan con un filo muy fino para que el corte sea más nítido y el reafilado más fácil. Por favor, proteja el filo de los golpes con materiales duros para evitar que se astille o se agriete.
  • Por favor, no lo utilice para cortar alimentos con hueso o congelados, ni ningún alimento de caparazón duro como la langosta y el cangrejo.
  • Recomendamos el uso de piedras de afilar japonesas para reafilar el cuchillo cuando esté desafilado.
