The ONE MORE THING of EOFY 2025: James' private collection: Yu Kurosaki Shizuku SG2 Sakimaru 450mm with friction fit magnetic ebony saya.
So, a few years back, Kurosaki contracted my handle / saya supplier to supply handle and saya for a special run of his 450mm Shizuku sakimaru sujihiki (for some special customers in Japan). Being super close to my handle supplier (as you can see here), I was able to score this knife for myself. Yes, it has one of the ebony handle and saya set that was produced at the same time when the rest were delivered to Kurosaki himself, and this is also the reason that you have never seen them available to other retailers. These sayas are EXPENSIVE, as even the inserts are made of Musk Ox box. Handle is triple spacer ebony blonde horn.
I know for a fact that these 450mm has all but disappeared, and Kurosaki-san hasn't been making this for the last few years. I am dropping this one as the climax product of EOFY 2025.
One ONLY, Enjoy!

===========
The Shizuku R2 line is one of the most popular line from master Yu Kurosaki. This line is beautifully forged with Kurosaki's famous hammer pattern, resulting in a diamond mirror look through out the blade. The knife itself is probably one of my best cutters in its price range. As a result this line is one of the most recommended blades in my showroom :)
I am very happy to offer them to my fellow K&S customers.
