Overview
The Yu Kurosaki Fujin SG2 Petty 120mm is a compact precision knife from one of Echizen’s most celebrated smiths. “Fujin” means wind god—the hammered tsuchime pattern is designed to look like swirling gusts and also helps food release. With an SG2 (R2) powdered stainless core heat-treated to ~HRC 62–63 and clad in stainless steel, this 120mm petty is a fast, low-maintenance slicer for citrus, garlic, shallots, herbs, garnish work, and on-board detail cuts. If you love Kurosaki’s laser-like feel but want something nimble for everyday prep, this is the sweet spot.
Expect a fine taper, thin grind behind the edge, and Kurosaki’s signature polish that makes draw cuts feel effortless. Typical wa handles are octagonal (often rosewood), though limited runs can feature premium woods—so balance and weight vary slightly by handle.
Common Questions
Q: Is this knife suitable for home cooks?
A: Absolutely. The 120mm petty is easy to control, excels at quick prep, and won’t overwhelm smaller boards. It’s an ideal second knife beside a gyuto or santoku.
Q: Will SG2 rust or stain?
A: SG2 is a high-chromium powdered stainless steel. It’s very corrosion-resistant, but good habits still matter: hand-wash, dry immediately, and avoid the dishwasher.
Q: How should I care for and maintain it?
A: Use a soft, knife-friendly board like the Hasegawa Pro. After cleaning, a light wipe of tsubaki (camellia) oil helps keep the blade pristine. For edge upkeep between full sharpenings, a few gentle passes on our premium leather strop bring back bite. Want it dialed in from day one? Add our professional sharpening service.
