Sakai Takayuki Kurokage Gyuto 210mm

Exceptional knife with a good hand feel and balance, still holding a good edge with only minimal honing even after some rigorous use. Love the fluorine coating which makes cleaning very easy. Highly recommended!

Nice knife

Have used quite a few knives from this store and all have been exceptional. So far, this is my favourite. It looks nice, has a really good blade on it and is really well balanced. Would definitely recommend.
