The blade has been forged from shirogami 2 from Hitachi, in other words, pure, non-stainless white steel. The 90/10 bevelled blade is hard and razor sharp, but very easy to sharpen. It gains a natural patina with use, and care must be taken to dry it well to prevent rust.
This paring knife is a very good value, and the blade has a pleasant, rough surface. The handle is made from honoki and protected with a layer of varnish.
IMPORTANT:
The 90/10 bevelled blade is for right-handed use only.
The blade requires special care to prevent rust.
