Kobayashi SG2

This is the line where Kei Kobayashi first showed what he could do with SG2 powdered stainless steel - a hairline stainless cladding wrapped around a 63 HRC core, ground into a true laser profile that drops through produce and proteins with very little resistance. The seven-sided lacquer-treated wood handles are comfortable and well-balanced, and the hand-chiseled kanji on select pieces is a nice finishing touch that sets these apart from production alternatives.
