Description
The Mcusta Tsuchi showcases a distinctive hammered tsuchime finish on its VG-10 blade, reducing food adhesion and adding visual drama. The 8cm blade is precision-ground in Seki City and locks via a dependable back lock mechanism. Rare quince wood handle scales add warmth and individuality to this exceptional carry knife.
**Textured Elegance**
The hammered blade surface plays with light as you open it — a constellation of dimples that are as functional as they are beautiful. In the hand, the quince wood warms quickly, becoming an extension of your grip, your intent.

**Tsuchime: The Hammer's Mark**
The tsuchime finish is created by hand-hammering the blade surface after forging, a technique originally developed to prevent food from sticking to kitchen knives. On the Tsuchi, it becomes a signature of artisan identity from Seki City's finest workshops.

Knife Care & Maintenance
Keep your blade performing at its best. Rinse and dry after each use to prevent corrosion. Apply a thin coat of mineral oil to the blade periodically. Sharpen with a whetstone or honing rod at a consistent angle. Store in a sheath, knife roll, or magnetic strip — never loose in a drawer. For carbon and Damascus steel, wipe after contact with acidic foods. For folding knives, clean the pivot area and apply a drop of lubricant to ensure smooth deployment.
