Technical Specifications:

• Blade Length: 8 Inches (205mm)
• Steel Core: Japanese VG-10 “Super Steel”
• Cladding: 67 Layers of Damascus (SUS410/SUS304)
• Hardness: 60 HRC (Rockwell Scale) for superior edge retention.
• Construction: Full Tang with an ergonomic curved bolster.
• Finish: Polished Damascus with a pre-sharpened double-bevel edge.

Why Choose VG-10?
Unlike cheaper stainless steels, VG-10 contains high carbon and cobalt, allowing it to reach a higher hardness (HRC) without becoming too brittle.(This knife is not designed for chopping hard food or bones.) This means you can grind a thinner, sharper edge that stays sharp through weeks of heavy vegetable prep.
