This steel performs at a high level while offering greater toughness and edge retention than its Japanese counterparts. It is easy to sharpen and takes some of the finest edges due to the lack of large carbides formed from alloying elements.

Each knife comes stored in its own wooden sheath and wrapped in a furoshiki.
