Kei Kobayashi SG2 Migaki 210mm Gyuto
Discover the impeccable craftsmanship of Kei Kobayashi, a rising talent in the Japanese knife-making world. Known previously for his expert sharpening and finishing skills, Kobayashi-san has ventured into creating complete blades—and his first offerings are nothing short of breathtaking. The Kei Kobayashi SG2 Migaki 210mm Gyuto exemplifies his meticulous attention to detail and refined aesthetic, resulting in an incredibly thin, sharp, and well-balanced knife that’s perfect for professional and home kitchens alike.
Crafted from SG2 steel, renowned for its dense grain structure and purity, this blade combines exceptional edge retention with impressive durability, making it one of the most sought-after steels for kitchen knives. The SG2 core is protected by a softer stainless cladding, reducing maintenance while highlighting the distinctive exposed hagane edge. This true laser blade is finished with a beautifully polished hairline finish, giving it a sleek, modern look that enhances performance.
Another unique aspect of this gyuto is its handle: a rare seven-sided design, crafted from a single piece of lacquer-treated wood, providing a comfortable and secure grip while showcasing Kobayashi-san’s commitment to innovation. This knife is a stunning start to his blacksmithing journey and a must-have for any collector or serious cook.
