The Blacksmith - Kei Kobayashi

Kei Kobayashi is a well renowned knife sharpener based in Seki City who, in recent years, has also trained as a blacksmith and now produces some of the most exquisite knives we've seen.

Kobayashi knives are finished to perfection and sharpened (as you would expect) to a staggeringly sharp edge. Like almost nothing else we've seen. 

The Range - SG2 Migaki

These knives are absolute lasers. Thin, hard SG2 stainless steel kept simple to deliver the absolute best performance. These are our personal favourites and comes with superb red lacquered handles.

The Steel - SG2/R2 Stainless Steel

This range is made using SG2 stainless steel. SG2 (sometime called R2) is a premium steel which is harder than many other stainless steels. The hardness allows the knife to get sharper, stay sharper longer and out perform softer steels making it one the best performers around. The hardness does require a little more elbow grease when sharpening the knife though, but you will need to do it less often.

The Model - Sujihiki

Sujihiki is double edged blade and can work well as a carving knife and for other longer bladed tasks.
