Sukenari Hap40 210mm kiritsuke gyuto (custom handle with saya)

Hitachi HAP40 powder steel, which is incredibly hard, is used to make the core of these blades. These gorgeous Japanese knives were tested at an astounding 67 HRC, which means they can maintain an unbelievably sharp edge for a lot longer than the ordinary knife. This makes them a perfect option for professionals and knife enthusiasts. Since HAP40 is a semi-stainless steel, please promptly wipe it down and dry it after usage.
