Care Instruction
  1. Don't cut hard things! Japanese knives are brittle so bone hacking is a NO NO!
  2. Wash with neutral detergent after use, and wipe dry;
  3. Please don't wash knife with dishwasher, it will damage the wood handle;
  4. Be careful not to leave the knife close to a heat source for a long time;
  5. It is a lot more dangerous to cut with a blunt knife than a sharp knife!
  6. It is best to sharpen a Japanese knife regularly on a waterstone.

  • Steel: MV (Molybdenum Vanadium)

    The MV steel is a generic term that used for steel with molybdenum and vanadium added to it, the carbide formed by these two elements have very high hardness but relative small in their particle sizes, which is good for increase the wear resistance of the steel without sacrifice too much toughness. MV steel is commonly stamped on lower end and entry level Japanese blades but it doesn't refer to a specific chemical composition, but rather indicate that M and V are added to the steel. MV steels are usually fully stainless with a hardness not greater than 60 HRD due to lower carbon content.
