The invention relates to a method for producing high-purity metal chromium by using a carbon reduction method. The method comprises the following steps of: uniformly mixing chromic oxide powder and carbon black powder, adding deionized water or alcohol to form a wet mixed material, carrying out press forming, and drying, thereby obtaining a mixed material block; putting the mixed material block in a vacuum furnace, and enabling chromic oxide to be reduced by carbon black under high-temperature vacuum conditions, thereby obtaining crude chromium; introducing gaseous carbon monoxide, and carrying out heat preservation for 3-8 hours at the temperature of 1,300-1,500 DEG C; introducing gaseous carbon dioxide, and carrying out heat preservation for 3-8 hours at the temperature of 800-1,000 DEG C; and cooling down, and discharging, thereby obtaining a high-purity metal chromium block. According to the method, a gas-solid reduction manner is adopted to remove residual raw materials and non-metallic impurities, so that the production cost is reduced, and the reduction time is shortened; and the produced high-purity metal chromium has the purity of 99.96-99.98%, the oxygen content less than 0.03%, the sulfur content less than 0.01% and the carbon content less than 0.01%, thereby meeting the standards of the high-purity metal chromium.
