Tamahagane ProAre made from Molybdenum/Vanadium steel which is specially tempered and hardened to 58 degrees on the Rockwell scale. To achieve this hardness it is heatedto 1050degrees C and after that it is cooled to below -73degrees C. This extreme heat and cooling not only hardens the knife it also provides great durability and facilitates a razor sharp edge.The entire blade not just the edge is formed using wet-honing technique with grindstones. This process starts with coarse and then medium grindstonesto form the primary blade. They are finished with superfine grindstones that give the blade’s edge a mirror finish. Forming the whole blade using this method allows the knife to be easily re-sharpened. This combined with the mirror polished edge provides excellent edge retention. The handles are madeof anti-micro bacterial compressed laminated black wood and fitted with a ferrule between the blade’s tang and handle.Chef's Knife8 long.
