Yu Kurosaki Shizuku Gyuto 24 cm R2 is a unique chef’s knife that combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with modern materials. Thanks to its long and slender 24 cm blade, it is perfect for precise cutting of meat, fish, vegetables, and fruits. Its versatility and excellent balance make it an indispensable tool for both professional kitchens and cooking enthusiasts.
The blade is made of high-quality SG2 (R2) powder steel, which is characterized by a hardness of 63±1 HRC. It’s one of the most durable materials used in the production of Japanese knives, ensuring exceptional edge retention and corrosion resistance. Double-bevel sharpening makes the knife suitable for both right- and left-handed people. The characteristic hammered Tsuchime finish not only gives the blade a unique look but also reduces friction during cutting, minimizing food sticking to the knife’s surface.
The use of SG2 steel allows for a very thin yet extremely durable blade. The fine-grained structure of this steel means the knife holds its sharpness longer compared to standard alloys. The subtle distal taper, which is the gradual narrowing of the blade towards the tip, contributes to even better balance and precise handling of the knife.
The handle is made of rosewood, which provides a natural, warm finish and excellent ergonomics. The octagonal shape guarantees a secure grip and stability during work, even with wet hands. The additional reinforcement with a pakka wood ferrule increases the handle’s durability and its resistance to moisture.
