Two blades, same collection, two of the most popular sizes — assembled here at the shop into a true matching 1 of 1 duo. We paired these Hikari Kurozome SLD blades with some of the most unique handles we had available, creating a set that feels cohesive, bold, and impossible to replicate exactly again.
The custom handles are where this duo really comes alive. Built from stabilized wood, epoxy, and real embedded pine cone sections, both handles explode with depth, texture, and color while still flowing naturally together as a matching pair. The translucent epoxy tips shift under light and reveal different tones depending on angle, giving the knives an almost glowing effect without feeling overdone. No two pours ever come out identical, which makes this set truly one of a kind.
The Kurozome Hikari series from Hatsukokoro is known for its extremely thin and agile grind combined with SLD semi-stainless steel, giving you excellent edge retention with far less maintenance than traditional carbon steel. The darker Black Damascus finish adds depth and movement to the blades while keeping a clean, refined look that stands out without being flashy.
The 210mm Gyuto handles the heavy lifting while the 130mm Petty takes care of the finer detail work, making this one of those duos that realistically covers almost everything in the kitchen. Lightweight, laser-like through food, and finished with truly stunning matching custom handles assembled entirely in-house at the shop.
