KURO

KURO by Cangshan®: the carving set in black

KURO is Cangshan®'s dark series. Damastchef is the official and exclusive distributor of Cangshan in Germany. The blades consist of 67 layers of X-7 damascus steel, are sharpened by hand and hardened to 60 ± 2 HRC. Black G-10 handles underline the dark design.

The carving set

The 2-piece carving set consists of a carving knife and a meat fork. It lets you slice roasts, poultry and large cuts of meat cleanly. The set comes in a black and ash-grey wooden box.

More knives for meat are under Carving knives.

Care and storage

Damascus knives don't belong in the dishwasher. After cutting, rinse the blade briefly with warm water and a little washing-up liquid and dry it straight away with a cloth. Cut on wooden or plastic boards: glass, stone and ceramic quickly dull any edge.

Store the knife so that the edge touches nothing: on a magnetic knife strip, in a knife block or with a blade guard. For resharpening, a fine-grit whetstone works well, and wooden handles appreciate an occasional drop of camellia oil.

Frequently asked questions about the KURO series

What do I need a carving knife for?

For large cuts of meat like roasts, roast beef or poultry. The long, narrow blade cuts even slices in one stroke.

What's the fork for?

It holds the meat firmly while you carve, without squashing it.

Does the set make a good gift?

Yes, it comes in a wooden box and is ready to give straight away.
