The Shizuku R2 collection is without doubt one of the most popular by master Yu Kurosaki. These knives are beautifully crafted and distinguished by the famous Tsuchime hammered pattern, which resembles water droplets. This pattern gives the entire Shizuku line its name.

R2/SG2 powder steel is the ideal material for the core of the knives, which achieves an impressive hardness of 62-63 HRC during heat treatment. The core is surrounded by two layers of soft stainless steel for protection. R2 is a high-quality steel with many advantages, including ease of maintenance and sharpening, and long-lasting edge retention. The octagonal handle is made of unique rosewood. It fits well in the hands of both right-handed and left-handed people. The Shizuku R2 series knives are the product of a true master.
