Product information
Cladding (Jigane) on both sides consists of 5 layers each of „soft” iron: Suminagashi (Japanese: flowing ink), which resembles damascus steel, encases the cutting core (Hagane) made of Aogami 2, a modified Blue Paper Steel with a high hardness of around 63/64 HRC. Although, like the cladding, it is not stainless, it is far less prone to corrosion compared to White Paper Steel, which is particularly beneficial in the realm of kitchen knives.
The octagonal (Japanese: hakkaku = octagonal) shaped, classic handle fits very well in the hand and is suitable for both right- and left-handed users. Made from dark walnut with a light maple ferrule, it creates a beautiful contrast between the two woods, which, in combination with the Suminagashi design of the blade cladding, gives these knives a very appealing and elegant appearance.
