Hatsukokoro Hayabusa ATS34 Damascus

Sanmai - Stainless Damascus Clad Migaki ATS34 / Stainless Hyogo, Japan

The Hatsukokoro Hayabusa ATS34 Damascus series showcases premium ATS-34 steel, an improved version of 440C with added molybdenum, offering exceptional hardness, edge retention, and durability. Identical to the classic 154CM steel, this high-performance material ensures a razor-sharp edge with long-lasting sharpness.

The blade features a beautifully polished Damascus pattern with a high migaki finish, enhancing both aesthetics and smooth cutting performance. The ATS34 Hayabusa have a slightly different profile than other members from the Hayabusa family, their curved tip provided a more rounded "belly", making it much easier to perform rock cutting with these knives.

With a perfect blend of premium steel, refined craftsmanship, and a sleek design, the Hayabusa ATS34 Damascus series is ideal for professionals and enthusiasts seeking both beauty and performance in a Japanese kitchen knife.
