Kei Kobayashi SG2 Japanese craft knives

Discover Kei Kobayashi' s superb handcrafted Japanese knives on KnifeLeader! Our team brings you these kitchen knives created in the purest Japanese tradition by Kei Kobayashi san, a master sharpener. He began by perfecting the art of sharpening and finishing a good kitchen blade, and then decided to start making complete knives. And he had a good idea! Kobayashi SG2 Japanese knives are formidably efficient, because as their name suggests, their blades are made of SG2 steel. The latter is a so-called powder steel with exceptional capabilities. With a hardness of around 63 HRC, it has excellent edge retention, allowing you to space out sharpening sessions, while remaining easy to maintain once the time comes. We offer several ranges of Kobayashi knives, with different handle materials. For example, in the Heptagone range, the handle of the Kobayashi SG2 knife is made of polished and varnished Pakkawood. It is a beautiful dark red color, and you can appreciate its unique, wood-like patterns. With its heptagonal shape, it is suitable for all cooks, and remains very pleasant in the hand. The Octagon range features a Sandalwood handle, followed by a Pakkawood bolster, all cut in an octagonal shape. Come and appreciate Kei Kobayashi SG2 knives at their true value by purchasing on our site! Discover all the other brands of Japanese knives we offer by using the menu on the left!
