Mr. Takeda is a 3rd generation master blacksmith and each knife is carefully and painstakingly forged and tempered out of Blue Aogami Super Steel. Aogami steel is a hard carbon steel , which holds an incredible edge, while still being easy to sharpen. For this new line, Takeda has added a stainless cladding to protect against oxidizing and discoloration. Each Takeda knife is completely unique and razor sharp out of the box. As each knife is handmade, blade lengths and profiles may vary slightly.Blade length 240mm - 260mm (9.4" - 10")Thickness at spine3.5mmThickness at tip0.8 mmHardness (Rockwell scale) 61-63
