SG2, also known as Super Gold 2, is a high end, high carbon stainless steel is known for being a tough steel with excellent edge retention and easy maintenance. The sharp blade is set in a premium-cut, waterproof stabilised maple burl wood in Natural Brown. The knife comes in a handcrafted, minimalist wooden box wrapped in a unique illustration strip. Backed by a lifetime guarantee. Perfect for those demanding, comfort appreciating cooks, designed to intensify pleasure from cooking.
