Kurosaki Fujin VG-10 Gyuto (chef's knife), 240 mm
Kurosaki Fujin VG-10 Gyuto,
This Japanese chef's knife has a core of rust-resistant Japanese VG-10 with an outer layer of rust-resistant damascus steel (patterned steel). VG-10 steel is one of the most widely used steels in Japanese kitchen knives. The steel is characterized by a high hardness and high toughness without the steel being brittle. This steel is perfect for regular kitchen use and is easy to sharpen. This double-sided sharpened knife has a very nice hammer-blow pattern. This knife is completely forged by hand by master blacksmith Yu Kurosaki and is unique in its kind. The blade is very thin and manually sharpened and has no thickenings, which makes sharpening very easy.
