Yu Kurosaki's Senko line of knives comes with a unique and stylish look. The hammer marks of this design resemble mini triangles and, together with the reasonably high polish, give the upper surface an outstanding sparkle in the light.
Kurosaki-san has used SG2 powdered metallurgical stainless steel as the core steel. This is covered, san-mai style, with stainless steel cladding. The core steel is hardened to 62 HRC. The distinctive way they finish these knives is not for looks alone. The unique and beautiful cladding shimmers in the light.
A nice handle made of walnut wood with an oak ferrule completes the package.Blacksmith: Yu Kurosaki
