Yu Kurosaki 

Well known for his unique blade designs Yu Kurosaki is one of the youngest and most talented blacksmiths in Japan. Not only does Kurosaki tempt us with his beautiful blade designs, but their ability to perform keeps us coming back. High quality materials and age old forging techniques combine to create a knife with an extremely sharp edge that will hold up throughout use.

Yu Kurosaki Raijin (雷神, God of the Thunder) is the latest addition of the Kurosaki line. Kurosaki has built his reuption because his knife cuts extremely well, and on top of that, the unique hammer patterns on his blades demonstrate his own style and understanding of knife artistics. While the Fujin (God of the Wind) is based on VG10 damascus and Aogami Super, the Raijin is the next iteration utilitsing a special cobalt steel, heat treated to HRC64.
