More Details
- Core Material: Aogami Blue Paper Super Steel is known for its superior hardness, sharpness, and exceptional edge retention.
- Hardness: Hardened to 63/64 Rockwell, this knife delivers a cutting edge that remains sharp for longer, even through heavy use.
- Durability: The steel is wrapped in two layers of stainless steel, coated with a kurouchi (black forged) finish to provide extra protection against rust and wear. This finish also helps shield the knife from falls and bumps.
- Tsuchime Finish: The hammered tsuchime finish reduces food sticking, making your cutting tasks smoother and more efficient.
Carbon Steel
Carbon steel knives require more care than stainless steel but sharpen more easily. They can rust without proper maintenance but develop a protective patina over time, adding unique character. Learn more on our page: All about carbon steel.
