Kurosaki-san uses SG2 powdered metallurgical stainless steel as the core steel of this beautiful knife. The hagane is covered, san-mai style, with a stainless steel jigane. In the case of the Senko, Kurosaki-san core steel is hardened to 62 HRC which results in steel with high edge retention that has good wear resistance.
The hammer marks of this new design resemble mini triangles and together with the fairly high polish give the upper blade surface a wonderful sparkle in the light. And while this unique and very attractive cladding shimmers in the light it also aids in the release of food in an almost magical way.
As with all of his creations, this knife is way more than looks. Kurosaki-san makes his blades with an eye towards performance. One look at the choil shots shows the sublime grinds that make the Senko a king of speed and agility.
