Yu Kurosaki, know-how made in Takefu Village

Yu Kurosaki's workshop is located in the heart of the famous blacksmith's village of Takefu. This is one of the focal points of Japanese cutlery production, as it is home to a number of renowned craftsmen whose expertise stems from the skills of ancient Japanese sword smiths. Kurosaki San was a student of a master blacksmith for almost 12 years. Little by little, he mastered all the steps involved in creating a knife, from forging to sharpening. Little by little, he received orders from customers who appreciated the knives he created, and it was on the strength of this positive feedback that he launched his own workshop!

The Yu Kurosaki knife, a concentrate of quality

Every Kurosaki kitchen knife is a concentrate of high-quality materials, from the blade to the tip of the handle. The blade of the Kurosaki Fujin knife, for example, features a core of VG10 Japanese steel, with 1% carbon, which makes it very rigid and thus enables it to retain its sharpness over time. This core is then surrounded by dozens of alternating layers of softer steel: this is the damascus. Finally, the blade is bevel-hammered, creating a unique visual effect! The handle is made of sandalwood, a grit wood that's very pleasant to the touch. Its beautiful dark color contrasts well with the hammered blade. The overall effect is harmonious, unique and prestigious. When you buy a Kurosaki knife, you're choosing to equip yourself with a high-flying, handcrafted knife that will quickly make your everyday cutting a pleasure. Don't hesitate, quantities are limited!
