First Impressions
Out Of The Box, The Quality Of The Finish On The Cutting Edge Is Immediately Apparent And Thefujin Is Right Up There With The Very Best Knives For Out Of The Box Sharpness And Kurosaki San Has Once Again Created Something Special With This Range.
Beauty
It’S Hard To Avoid Using Too Many Superlatives When Describing Yu Kurosaki Knives So We Won’T.
These Are Astonishingly Beautiful Knives, The Hammer Finish Designed To Invoke Feelings Of Motion From The Wind Of The Godfujin Combined With The Subtle Exposed Tapering Of The Core Sg2 Steel Down To The Cutting Edge Really Do Make Thefujin Every Bit A Piece Of High Performance Art.
Unlike The Vg10 Version Of The Fujin, This Collection Has An Ebony And White Buffalo Horn Handle To Complete The Outstanding Look.
In Hand
Well Balanced And Relatively Lightweight This Version Of The Fujin Is Paired With A Tradtional Wa Handle Made From Ebony And White Buffalo Horn. It’S A Joy To Use.
Durability
The Sg2 Core Steel Clad In Stainless Is Already Very Sharp Out Of The Box And Edge Retention And Durability Of The Steel Is Top Notch.
Ease Of Care
Very Easy To Care For, Sg2 Is Stainless, Durable And Retains An Edge Well Sofollow Our Normal Care Guideand Perhaps Consider Storing Your Knife On One Of Ourmagnetic Rackswhen Not In Use.
Our Verdict
Given The Outstanding Sharpness, The Design, Fit And Finish And Yu Kurosaki’S Experience And Skill As A Master Blacksmith Thefujin Range Is Great Value For Money And Much Like His Other Ranges You’Re Getting A Great Deal Of Skill And Quality For Your Money.
Kurosaki’S Work Is In High Demand For Good Reason.
