Yu Kurosaki is a master blacksmith, well known in Japan for his production of innovative blade design. His passion for new design and commitment to superb craftsmanship combine to produce an amazing knife that is both beautiful and functional.

This is a hammered kurouchi AS version of the Shizuku. To avoid confusion with his R2 line and due to the shortage of available AS, this line will no longer be available. Get one while you can, I am definitely holding onto one!
