{"product_id":"mcusta-zanmai-limited-ultimate3-black-phoenix-coreless-damascus-210mm-gyuto","title":"Mcusta Zanmai \"Ultimate3 - Black Phoenix\" Coreless Damascus 210mm Gyuto","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Ultimate3 Black Phoenix is the dramatic, limited counterpart to Mcusta Zanmai's flagship coreless gyuto. Built on the Ultimate3 platform, it presents the layered blade in a darker, more theatrical execution intended for collectors who still expect serious cutting performance. Coreless construction carries hard steel through the full patterned stack, creating a vivid Damascus surface without relying on a conventional single core and soft outer jacket. The result is technically demanding, visually unmistakable, and produced in quantities far below ordinary Zanmai lines. A black handle treatment completes the Phoenix theme and gives the 210mm blade a focused, modern profile. Exact batch-specific fittings and measurements remain to be confirmed, but the knife's purpose is clear: a scarce statement piece with the balance and versatility of a full-size Japanese gyuto.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpec:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin (Made in): Seki, Gifu Prefecture, Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Mcusta Zanmai\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeries: Ultimate3 Black Phoenix Limited Edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Marusho Industry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKnife Type: Gyuto\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Coreless Damascus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrind: Double-edged Blade (50\/50 Grind)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Steel: VG10 \/ VG2 Coreless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDamascus Layers: 70\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardness: TBC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-finished, hand-sharpened\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Phoenix Coreless Damascus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Length: 210mm (8.3\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade Height (at heel): 45mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpine Thickness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbove heel: 2.0mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMiddle: 1.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"spec_sublist\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape: Hachikaku (Octagonal)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Black Laminated Wood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFittings: Metal Kuchiwa and End Cap\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 132mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall Length: 355mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 198g (6.98 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMark: Mcusta Zanmai branding; exact batch markings TBC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Mcusta Zanmai 三昧\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMcusta Zanmai is made by Marusho Industry in Seki City, Japan.
