This is a secret line of Saji that I have been working on for a long long time ---- Takeshi Saji signature diamond damascus pattern R2 knife with Nishihara (Tanaka) coke-bottle style handle!

Essentailly I asked Saji-san to provide the blade and Master Sadao Nishihara to put on his signature coke-bottle shaped western handle using my favouriate timber: Australia Ringed Gidgee.  

We all know Master Saji well, but who is Master Nishihara? Well, if you ever handled a Tanaka R2 western line (arguably the best western handle from Japan) then you probably haved already handled Master Nishihara's work. Master Nishihara was the main handle maker for Tanaka western line after late Kazuyuki, until he become semi-retired eariler last year. 

 

 

 

Becuase of my great relationship with both Saji-san and Nishihara-san (they two are good friends as well), I was able to come up with the idea of this unique K&S exclusive product. Combining with my favourite exotic timber: Australian Ringed Gidgee, I am proud to offer you another unique and exciting product!

 

====================================

Takeshi Saji, who is famous for his exceptional work of hunting knives is now also forging some of the best artisan kitchen knives as well. Obtained the highest award of Dento-Kougeishi in 1994, he is the leading bladesmith in the Echizen district. His work is highly artistic, utilizing some of the most exotic traditional skills and materials to perfect his work. For example, he is famous for using the R2/SG2 powder metallurgy steel to forge his high-end blades, which can reach a mighty HRC 64; for handles, he uses rare natural materials like stag bone, and desert ironwood; he also use the traditional Makie Urushi (one of the most exotic traditional Japanese lacquer painting technique, see here) in some of his limited runs.    

 

I have long wanted one of Saji-san's R2/SG2 blades, way before I get into the knife vending business, but unfortunately when I was ready to buy, everywhere was showing me the "OUT-OF-STOCK", proving it is in a such high demand with limited supply to the market. So the first thing after I started K&S, was to see if I can get some of his blade. Luckily through our strong channel, I was able to finally get some of his "most wanted" blades: R2/SG2 core diamond damascus pattern sanmai blade with desert ironwood handle and VG10 core damascus with stag handle.

 

K&S is proud to carry Takeshi Saji knife.

Great product makes my skin look dewy and soft with no powdery biproduct
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Excellent product. It looks white on my fingertips but absorbs as a clear product which feels soft, cool, and gel-like on my skin. I usually use it with a gel moisturizer but I think one can use it on its own.

Sunscreen for Combination and Sensitive Skin
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been buying different skincare products because I really want to improve the way my skin looks and feels. My skin type is combination, with a history of acne, some acne marks, enlarged pores (especially on my nose and cheeks), a dull and slightly dry tone, occasional sensitivity, a light expression line on my forehead, and sometimes dry patches. As you can see, I have quite a few concerns, so I have to be careful with the products I use. 💬 I chose this Sunscreen, and I’ve absolutely loved it! The texture is lightweight and keeps my skin well-hydrated throughout the day. My face doesn’t look dull anymore — it looks fresh and naturally glowy, which I really appreciate. I also love how quickly it absorbs without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling. And of course, the most important part: it really protects my skin from the sun.

Great product but expensive and small
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This looks great on the skin, it's a very good product. Expensive for the size though, the tube is more like travel size. I think it's worth it if you have sensitive or acne-prone skin as this didn't break me out like traditional sunscreens, but I think it's expensive for how much you get.
