Yu Kurosaki Gekko 170mm Bunka VGXEOS - Oak

Yu Kurosaki is a relatively young forge that has taken the knife world by storm over the past few years. The incredibly skilled forge is known for its extremely beautiful and functional knives. He is particularly known for his Tsuchime finish, which can be found on, among other things, his Senko series

The Gekko series is hand forged in 3 layers - VGXEOS at the core and soft stainless on the outside.

VGXEOS is a new steel that is very similar to HAP40. It can be hardened hard so that the knife stays sharp for a long time, and it is rust-free.

The knife is a Bunka and can be used for smaller pieces of meat, fish and vegetables.

The knife, like all other good Japanese knives, cannot be machine washed , always wash your knives by hand. The knife cannot cut harder objects such as; frozen food, bones, hard cheeses, nuts, chocolate, etc.
