Makoto Kurosaki has, like all great blacksmiths, worked his way through the ranks of apprenticeships, forging and working alongside some of the legends of modern blade making. Together with his brother, Yu, he worked and learned with the famed Kato-san.
He started making blades under his own name quite recently, and his initial offerings were hits with many of our customers. His original limited offerings through CKTG have grown and now included the Ryusei line of Aogami Super stainless-clad knives. We are pleased to be the first store in the world to offer them for sale.
As of 5-10-2021, Makoto-san is using a new stainless steel for him called VG7. The blades are clad with stainless steel. The VG7 hagane is hardened to 61.5+ HRC, which bestows the blade with the ability to take and hold a super sharp edge.Weight: 8.5 oz (240 g)
Edge Length: 242 mm
Total Length: 405 mm
Spine Thickness at Base: 2.1 mm
Blade Height at Base: 64.0 mm
