The blade is in suminagashi with a core in aogami 2, a high-performance non-stainless carbon steel.
It is harder than shirogami because it also contains chrome and tungsten, which also strengthens its resistance to wear.
However, it is easy to sharpen and will take on a very keen edge.
This classic santoku is very light with a traditional-style handle in honoki and real buffalo horn.
