This beautiful “JAPAN BLUE” version of SENKO-EI by Yu Kurosaki feature the sharp-pointed shape, the shining unique hammered texture, and Japanese traditional indigo-dyed (Ai-zome) beautiful blue handle and saya sheath.

The Ai-zome blue-colored handles and saya of these knives are carefully Ai (Japanese original indigo)-dyed with Japanese traditional method by skilled craftsperson on natural wood for Top Professional Use.



The Ai color was called “Japan Blue” around 100 years ago in the Meiji era by people who visited Japan from Western countries.
Why did they call so? Because Japan was rich in Ai colors used to a variety of clothes. Even today, the blue color is reflected to the uniform of Japanese football national team. So this Ai color represents the image of Japan.

Takeshi Saji SG2/R2 Damascus series feature Damascus-patterned blades with a core of Micro Carbide Powder Stainless Steel for professional, which provides excellent rust resistance and a long-lasting edge as well as its beautifulness and unique design with custom-made feeling.



On the beautifully Japanese lacquered (Urushi-nuri) saya sheath and handle, the traditional decorative Maki-e artwork of “FUJIN RAIJIN (the Wind and Thunder Gods)” is carefully hand-drawn by Master Kouichiro Tsukada.
The collaboration by the master blacksmith Takeshi Saji and the Maki-e master Kouichiro Tsukada is very unique to bring the masterpiece into creation successfully.

Please be noted that the stock of this FUJIN RAIJIN version is extremely limited, the last piece now.

]]> The Suminagashi series feature beautiful Damascus-patterned blades with a core of Blue Paper (Aogami or Aoko) No.1 Steel, made from famous Yasugi steel, known as prime high carbon steel, specifically developed for tools and knives. As you know, the combination of Aogami #1 and Damascus pattern is unique and rare.

Stylish Sharp blade

Traditional Hand Engraving

This material, Aoko #1, has highest wear resistance and toughness because of special hardness (hardness of 62-63 HRC). Very good choice for high end Japanese kitchen knives.
The blade is particularly suitable for the gentle preparation of foods though you need to treat the blade to prevent from rust.

Precious WAVE pattern


Speaking to the Ebony Wood handle, the Japanese-Style Octagonal figure fits better comfortably to your hand.
The Buffalo Tsuba equipped to the handle represents high-quality and excellent durability, that means made for professional originally.
(Please be noted that the buffalo tsuba (guard) is a natural product that may possibly be different from the image in color.)

Saya Sheath with Certificating Seal-impression


In addition to that, the Natural Magnolia Saya Sheath with Japanese Traditional Certificating Seal-impression is included.
We recommend this high-class kitchen knife series for professional chefs to enhance their art of cooking as well as for Perfect Gift.
