The blades are made of
Hitachi Aogami Super (AS Carbon steel), an ultimate Hagane
refined from Yasugi sand-rons. High carbon steel (1.40
–
1.50) with Chromium (0.30
– 0.50) and Tungsten (2.00 – 2.50) added for extra durability and
longer edge retention. This core carbon steel is clad with
420J1 stainless steel to prevent from rusting. Full tang black
Staminawood handle securely fastened with three stainless
steel rivets and
bolster.
Since introducing this series some
years ago, there have been constant increase in the demands to
become our monthly Top 5 sellers. The secret is their cutting
efficiency and longer retention of the sharp edge. Because of
the difficulty to work with in forging and heat treatment
process, we canft see so many knives made of this
steel.
We proudly
recommend to those who demand extreme sharp edge and cutting
performance.
