About Syosaku Japanese Vegetable Knife Aoko
Minimal impurities and high carbon content (1.1%) combined with special production techniques give exceptional hardness (HRC 62-63) to the core. The hardness allows the ultra thin blade edge, resulting in razor sharpness. The hard Aoko(Blue Steel)-No.2 is clad in softer stainless steel. This gives the blade an added toughness and durability. Handcrafted in Sakai Japan, where the master craftsmanship has been handed down generation to generation for centuries. FEATURES - Total length: 12 inches - Weight: 0.4 pound - Blade length: 6.3 inches - Width at widest heel: 2 inches - Bevel: Both-sided 50/50 - Rockwell hardness: 62-63 - Handle fixing: Triple riveted full tang PACKAGE CONTENT A Vegetable (Nakiri) knife and a Magnolia Wood sheath with an ebony pin with a clear plastic blade cover in a fancy box. MAINTENANCE The high carbon steel of the core is not stainless. The stain doesn't affect the performance of the knife, or the food you cut. You can minimize the stain by drying the blade well and applying knife maintenance oil before storage. You can remove most of the stain by a rust eraser. Dishwasher might damage the blade. Sharpen regularly with quality whetstones. Honing steels are not recommended as they can damage the edge. BUY NOW RISK-FREE Simply click "Add to Cart" button before the limited stock is sold out.
