This collection is hand forged by Kurosaki-san, and made with SG2 powdered steel which has incredible edge retention and will stay sharp for a long time. SG2 is a premium stainless steel made from a process called Powder Metallurgy, where the steel is formed by heating compacted metal powder. In the case of SG2, this results in a fine-grained, high-alloy steel which contributes to its superb edge retention that is superior to other popular stainless steels (e.g. VG10, Ginsan, AUS8). \u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/p\u003e\nBlade Type: Santoku\u003cbr\u003e\nCore: SG2 \/ R2 Powdered Stainless Steel\u003cbr\u003e\nCladding: Stainless Steel\u003cbr\u003e\nHandle: Rosewood Octagonal Handle\u003cbr\u003e\nSpine Thickness at Heel: 3.3mm\u003cbr\u003e\nBlade Height at Heel: 46mm\u003cbr\u003e\nHRC: 62-63\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: 140g\u003cbr\u003e\nBlade Length: 169mm\u003cbr\u003e\nOverall Length: 313mm","brand":"Yu Kurosaki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47892238827678,"sku":"SHIZUKU165SAN","price":350.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0478\/6313\/6414\/files\/50a09babae282f4ca1e7fed60a8fda6e.jpg?v=1782197654","url":"https:\/\/www.semiblack.sg\/products\/yu-kurosaki-shizuku-sg2-santoku-165mm","provider":"Semiblack","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
