The core is then surrounded with stainless steel that's hammered to a dramatic Damascus-textured finish. Legendary Katana Edge Using traditional methods and new innovative techniques, each knife in the Miyabi Artisan SG2 collection features a hand-honed blade finished with a katana edge. First, tsuchime:The three layers of SG2 steel are hammer-finished to allow food to pass across the blade without sticking. Then, honbazuke:The edge is sharpened with this ancient three-step process, which involves sharpening the blade twice on whetstones, then mirror polishing it on a leather wheel. Finally, katana:Each blade is hand-honed to an angle between 9½° and 12° per side-a process that was developed over 1000 years ago to create the ultimate sharpness for samurai swords. Distinctive Cocobolo Pakkawood HandleMade with unique Cocobolo Rosewood pakkawood, featuring brass and red spacers, a mosaic pin, and a stainless steel end cap, the handles are both ergonomic enough for any cook and elegant enough for any kitchen.
