WHY carbon steel?
- It's the purest steel and offers an extremely smooth cutting edge.
- Easier and faster sharpening due to low content of alloying elements.
- It forms a very hard and durably sharp blade.
- High collector's value.
- It develops a personal protective patina.
Over 600 years ago, the weapon blacksmiths established in Sakai, Japan, used their sword-making knowledge to make the first Japanese knives—from carbon steel!
