This knife is made from Japanese Aogami #1 steel, a carbon steel that's easy to sharpen and maintain. It must be thoroughly dried after each use to ensure longevity. When well-maintained, it cuts finer than any stainless steel knife. You may notice a patina forming on the core steel, leading to discoloration, which, fortunately, protects against rust.
