First Impressions

Out of the box, the quality of the finish on the cutting edge is immediately apparent and theFūjin is right up there with the very best knives for out of the box sharpness and Kurosaki san has once again created something special with this range.

Beauty

It’s hard to avoid using too many superlatives when describing Yu Kurosaki knives so we won’t.

These are astonishingly beautiful knives, the hammer finish designed to invoke feelings of motion from the wind of the GodFūjin combined with the subtle exposed tapering of the core SG2 steel down to the cutting edge really do make theFūjin every bit a piece of high performance art.

Unlike the VG10 version of the Fūjin, this collection has an ebony and white buffalo horn handle to complete the outstanding look.

In Hand

Well balanced and relatively lightweight this version of the Fūjin is paired with a tradtional wa handle made from ebony and white buffalo horn. It’s a joy to use.

Durability

The SG2 core steel clad in stainless is already very sharp out of the box and edge retention and durability of the steel is top notch.
