Takayuki Kurokage

Kurokage means dark shadow - and the combination of tsuchime (hammered) finish and black Teflon coating gives this line a visual identity unlike anything else in the Sakai Takayuki catalog. The Teflon coating provides genuine food release, not just aesthetics - everything cut slides off cleanly. VG10 stainless at 60-61 HRC, wenge octagonal handles, Tokyo-style machi gap. One of the most striking lines we carry.
