Hatsukokoro Hayabusa ATS34 Sanmai

Sanmai - Stainless Clad Migaki ATS34 / Stainless Hyogo, Japan

The Hatsukokoro Hayabusa ATS34 Sanmai series features premium ATS-34 steel, an upgraded version of 440C with added molybdenum, offering exceptional hardness, edge retention, and durability. Identical to the classic 154CM steel, it ensures a long-lasting, razor-sharp edge.

Crafted with a clean sanmai construction and a refined migaki finish, this knife embodies simplicity and elegance while maintaining excellent 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.
