The Masamoto CT is a high carbon steel blade with an attractive Red Sandalwood handle. Masamoto's carbon steel is impressively easy to sharpen and can take on an exquisitely sharp edge. Though what is most impressive about this series is how remarkably thin behind the edge these knives are, making the blade glide through product. And with the western handle and full tang construction, the knife has a stoutness to it.
Masamoto Sohonten was founded in 1884 and has a rich history of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Highly regarded for precision, sharpness and durability, Masamoto knives represent the pinnacle of Japanese knife-making, successfully blending tradition with modern techniques.
