Produced by Go Yoshizawa in Aomori, the blade features an SG2 powdered stainless steel core at 62-64 HRC within a san-mai stainless clad construction. The K-tip profile pairs a standard gyuto body with an angled kiritsuke-style point and flatter edge, optimising the knife for scoring, detailing, push-cutting, and long slicing strokes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe kurouchi tsuchime surface finish distinguishes this line as the budget-friendly counterpart to the non-kurouchi variant while maintaining performance. SG2 steel offers excellent wear resistance and uniform carbide distribution through its powdered metallurgy, though it is relatively hard to sharpen. Specifications include a 260mm edge length, 52mm heel height, and spine thickness measuring 2.2mm at the heel tapering to 1.2mm at the tip. Weighing between 180g and 248g, the knife features an octagonal ebony handle with a subtle taper that provides a geometric grip profile suited to general-purpose kitchen tasks requiring deliberate precision.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nigara Hamono","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46238702993629,"sku":"NG-SG2TSUKU-KGY270","price":446000.0,"currency_code":"KRW","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/NigaraSG2TsuchimeKurouchiK-tipGyuto270mmEbonyHandlea_5ffb56a7-99fb-4117-a6bb-e07cc6e812e5.jpg?v=1740616957","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.co.kr\/en\/products\/nigara-sg2-tsuchime-kurouchi-k-tip-gyuto-270mm-ebony-handle","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
