Product detail
KASUMI Titanium - stylish knives made of quality vanadium-molybdenum steel covered with a thin layer of titanium. This treatment not only provides perfect anti-corrosion protection, but is especially suitable for allergic persons to iron ions. Foods that come into contact with titanium do not show any odor or taste of iron. KASUMI Titanium knives are therefore a suitable replacement for ceramic knives, which clearly surpass their usability.
Another indisputable advantage of titanium is its hardness. This hardness makes it possible to produce very thin blades which are sufficiently durable after the application of titanium. The thinner the blade, the sharper the knife. And that is the reason for KASUMI Titanium razor-sharp knives.
The titanium layer protects the blades not only from corrosion but also against abrasion. It also makes maintenance of the knives easier, as adhesion of food to titanium is minimal.
The elegant blue color gives the blades a unique look. Combined with ergonomic handles made of high-quality thermo-resistant plastic, they create a very balanced entity.
Our hint: If you want to give your kitchen a modern and original look, KASUMI Titanium knives are the right choice.

About producer
The brand KASUMI belongs to Sumikama Cutlery Mfg. Pvt.Ltd. Its current owner represents the third generation of this knifemaking family. Mr. Katsumi Sumikava found a very appropriate name for his knives - KASUMI. Not only because it resembles his name, but mainly because their damascus blades resemble the outlines of mountains under a misty sky. In Japanese culture, you often come across names that are direct references to specific objects or phenomena. And this is one of the examples.
Sumikama Cutlery is located in the city of Seki in Gifu Prefecture. It is an important center of Japanese cutlery, a kind of analogue of Solingen in Germany or Sheffield in England. Admittedly, with a richer history. The first blacksmiths began to settle here at the end of the 13th century. The attraction was peat reserves, rich iron ore sand, fresh water and the proximity of important rivers. These ideal conditions caused more than 300 forges to operate in Seki between 1300 and 1500. The quality of Seki swords soon gained an unshakable position, and the best katanas of samurai warriors usually came from this area.
Today, the production of KASUMI brand kitchen knives is overseen by master Kanefusa Fujiwara himself, a member of the 25th generation of the clan, famous for the production of katana swords. You can find the proud name of the region on every KASUMI brand blade.
