Specifications: Knife Type: Kiritsuke SujihikiSteel Type: Blue Steel No.2 (Carbon Steel, Rust Prone)Blade Hardness: HRC 61-62Blade Type: Double edged bladeBlue steel, also known as Aogami/Aoki steelThis traditional steel is not named after its colour, but named after the colour of its paper wrapping, in which it is stored in the Hitachi steel factory in Japan. There are three different grades: super, #1 en #2. Blue steels use a high grade of carbon, chrome and vanadium added in their alloy. Aogami super even added extra tungsten. Aogami super is here " Best of both worlds" Blue #1 is for sharpness, Blue #2 for toughness. Blue steels are mostly seen in deba or usuba knives, white steels often in yanagibas. Aogami super is regarded as one of the best traditional steels by Japanese knifemakers, but difficult to work with. Blue steels are difficult to sharpen on a whetstone, but they remain sharp for a longer period, compared to white steels.Spec:Brand: Sakai TakayukiProfile:Kiritsuke SujihikiEdge Steel: Aogami 2 (Bleu#2)Bevel: DoubleBevel Symmetry: 60/40Handle:Rosewood Total Length: 400mmEdge Length: 273mmBlade Height: 36mmThickness at Spine: 2mmWeight: 199gPaymentI accept PayPal and Ebay payment.
