More about Yu Kurosaki Senko
The Senko (translates as "Flash") knife line from Yu Kurosaki continues Kurosaki's flair for creating something new and fresh with distinctive hammer patterns. The Senko line creates a flash of lightning across the blade as it captures the light.
Kurosaki-san has used SG2 High-Speed Powder Stainless steel in this line, which translates to wicked performance. These knives have long-lasting sharpness and are thin behind the edge, so they glide through even dense vegetables like carrots and potatoes. And they don't rust, so they're easy to maintain.
This is also one of the few series we carry that comes in both the traditional Japanese handle, as well as a series of custom one-off western handles. Regardless of the size or shape, you are looking for, this is a knife line that you'll reach for every time you are in the kitchen.
