{"product_id":"yu-kurosaki-raijin-vg10w-copy","title":"Yu Kurosaki Raijin VG10W Gyuto 210mm, with K\u0026S Amboyna Handle","description":"\u003cp\u003eI've had a soft spot for Yu Kurosaki's Raijin line since it landed. The hammered finish and the copper-coloured damascus look flashy, but the real story is the VG10 core. VG10 gets a bad rap from cheap factory knives, but in the hands of a good sharpener it's a different animal. Kurosaki-san runs it around 61 HRC, which gives you solid edge retention without making it a chore to sharpen. It's stainless, so you don't need to baby it, though I'd still wipe it down after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bunka is a great all-rounder. The flat profile suits push cuts and chopping, and the tip is nimble for detail work. The hammered finish isn't just for looks, it helps food release a little, though the real release comes from the convex grind behind the edge. It's a workhorse shape that punches above its price, especially if you want one knife that does most jobs well. If you're after a laser that glides through onions, this isn't it, but for a daily driver that takes a beating and keeps up, it's hard to beat.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yu Kurosaki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48344082645213,"sku":"YKURO-V10WRJ-GY210-ABN","price":11583.0,"currency_code":"TWD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0287\/7227\/0217\/files\/YuKurosakiRaijinVG10WGyuto210mm_withK_SAmboynaHandlea.jpg?v=1786084201","url":"https:\/\/www.knivesandstones.com.tw\/en\/products\/yu-kurosaki-raijin-vg10w-copy","provider":"Knives and Stones","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
