The slim yet stable blade delivers a perfectly controlled and clean cut with an authentic Japanese profile. A core of Micro Carbide MC63 (SG2) powder steel is embedded in 100 layers of two different types of steel, both with different degrees of hardness, creating the stunning 101-layer Flower Damascus pattern with katana edge. The CRYODUR blade is ice-hardened in a specially developed process at -196 degrees Celsius to a final hardness of approximately 63 Rockwell (62-64 HRC). The cutting edge is Honbazuke-honed using the three-step process to a 9.5 to 12 degree angle (19 degrees total), first sharpened twice on rotating stones and then polished on a leather wheel. The rounded spine and heel add to the refined handling experience. The D-shaped handle is made of beautiful Masur birch (Karelian birch), whose light and dark grain lines create a stunning interplay with the floral Damascus pattern, making each knife a unique work of art. Hand wash only.
