Description

Our "JCK Natures" house brand knives have proven to be some of JCK’s most popular knives. Each one of them has a unique appearance, fine characteristics and offers great value for money. Our JCK Natures Knives are a fusion of the craftsman’s special artistic techniques and the magnificent scenery of almighty nature. At the beginning of the year 2020, these JCK Natures 青雲 "Blue Clouds VG-10 Tsuchime Damascus" knives have finally been finished, and we are very excited to introduce and offer these new products to you. The "Blue Clouds" knives have an impressive mirror polished blade with a Tsuchime Hammered Texture and total of 33 beautiful Damascus layers. The rust-resistant VG-10 High Carbon Stainless Steel blade core is clad with many layers of beautiful Damascus. Heat treated to HRc. 60-61, the double bevel edged blade has a 50/50 symmetrical grind.
Rare, Unique and the Sophisticated Royal Blue-Purple Pakka Wood Handle Scales provide an impressive and stylish accent to the beautiful Damascus blade. Pakka Wood is strong, durable and resists both water and shrinkage. These high quality knives also feature a full-tang construction, a forged stainless steel bolster and stainless steel handle rivets. The combination of the stylish blade and attractive blue handle reminded me of a beautiful, expansive sky and clouds, hence the name "Blue Clouds" 青雲.

We especially recommend our JCK Natures "Blue Clouds" Knives to customers who are considering buying their first Japanese knife and want to own a moderately priced, high quality, practical, attractive and very fashionable knife.

The Gyuto is the Japanese version of the classic Western Chef’s knife. It can be used with a variety of different cutting techniques to achieve a wide range of kitchen tasks and is suitable for cutting the vast majority of meats, fish, vegetables and fruits. The Gyuto is true multi-purpose knife.

About Left Handed Version

This knife comes with 50/50 double bevel edge geometry for both right and left handed use.

For your information, Japanese Kitchen knives are generally designed for right hand use with a slightly thicker and rounded grinding on the right side blade and a less rounded (almost straight flat) grinding on the left side blade. However, both right and left hander can use the knives that have double bevel edge sharpened 50/50 without problems.

Instructions & Maintenance

We believe quality and performance of Japanese knives are best in the world and hope you enjoy fine craftsmanship and spirits from your new knife. With proper cares, every Japanese knife can be your special cooking partner for long time.

Important

This is the Stainless steel blade kitchen knife, which has good rust resistance for easy maintenance. However even stainless steel blade kitchen knife has rust situation if you leave it with wet condition.

This is an extremely sharp knife. Please use special cares in using and storing it.
Unlike German made knives, Japanese knife blades are ground to thin cutting edge for sharper cutting and easier re-sharpening. Please protect the edge from hitting hard materials to avoid chipping or cracking.
Please do not use it to cut bone or frozen foods, hard foods such as lobster and crab which have hard surface.
We recommend re-sharpening the knife using Japanese whetstones, when it gets dull.
