Kurosaki Sesame Forged 9.4" Sujihiki

Perfect Sujihiki for smaller workspaces/tasks. Not only is it absolutely gorgeous, it feels great in the hand and on the board. Has a bit of heft to help it move effortlessly through proteins and while it could still be considered lazer-y in a Takefu kind-of-way, it is not so thin that I feel like I have to be overly cautious with edge (just the normal amount). Quite sharp out of the box and still performing as well as it did on day one after three weeks of regular use, so I don’t yet know how it will feel on the stones when it is finally time to touch up the edge… This is my first knife from Yu Kurosaki and my first blade made from Cobalt Special steel and I have to say I am genuinely pleased and impressed so far.
