A quality higonokami knife
The 9cm blade of this knife features a San Maï structure, characterized by three superimposed layers of steel. This structure comprises a core surrounded by a protective layer folded around it.
The core of the blade is made ofJapanese VG10 steel, giving it a high hardness of 60HRC on the Rockwell scale. Its carbon content gives it a long-lasting, high-performance cutting edge. So you can space out your sharpening sessions!
To protect the core, an outer layer of mild steel is added. This layer gives the blade a slight suppleness, improving its handling, as excessive rigidity could make it brittle.

To add a touch of authenticity, a mosaic-shaped rivet has been integrated into the top of the handle! It adds elegance to your Japanese folding knife.
