Quality steel blades for optimum efficiency in the kitchen
The blade of a Japanese knife is made of carbon steel or stainless steel. Carbon steel contributes to the blade's hardness and sharpness. The higher the carbon content, the more efficient and resistant the blade. Damascus steel blades, for example, can achieve an HRC rating of over 60. An advantage for chefs: they don't need to sharpen their cutting edge between each preparation.
Stainless steel protects the Japanese knife blade from oxidation and corrosion. But the quality of its cutting edge is different.
