Tamahagane SAN SN-1122, Carving Fork

Tamahagane knives from Niigata in Japan use VG-5 stainless steel to manufacture a fantastic range of traditional Japanese knives. VG-5 is used for the central core and is similar to VG-10 stainless steel but considered slightly easier to sharpen and better for edge retention. Tamahagane SAN knives incorporate a 3 layer construction with the extremely hard VG5 steel core sandwiched between two softer layers of stainless steel for protection and flexibility. The 3-layer blades are complemented with a classical natural Pakkawood handle. The natural wood of the handle contrasts beautifully with the shining steel of every Tamahagane SAN Knife. The resulting knife is a classical traditional Japanese knife offering stunning performance. You must be over 18 to buy this product.
