Ichimonji Ikazuchi VG-10 Forge Welding Damascus Gyuto(Chef Knife)

steel material

Damascus is a forging process in which two types of steel materials of different hardness are bent over many layers and forged together, and by polishing the blade, the hard steel material glistens and the soft steel material dulls, creating a unique pattern on the surface that resembles the grain of wood. This ripple pattern is called Damascus steel. The beautiful rippled pattern of Damascus steel is very popular among foreign chefs. The core material used is V-Kin No. 10, which has high hardness and is resistant to corrosion. Because this v-Kin-10 is forged and hardened, the knife is more tenacious than the usual interrupted knives and can cut longer.
