Knives & Stones is proud to be one of the first vendors to receive the latest offering from Sukenari: Stainless sanmai double-bevel knives featuring the famous Takefu SuperGold 2 (SG2 / R2) steel.
The SG2 / R2 is arguably the most balanced powdered steel for kitchen knives, reasons being:
- Excellent edge retention like all PM (Powdered Metallurgy) steel
- Fine-grained, enables smaller sharpening angle therefore better cutting performance
- Low Abrasion Resistance among PM steel types
Hope you enjoy another unique offering from Knives & Stones!
