Japanese AUS-8 Steel
SENSHI SERIES
Japanese AUS-8 steel blades meet the standard of a tough, rust-resistant knife with a significantly long lasting razor-sharp edge. Carbon and Molybdenum explains its rigidity and high wear resistance, Chromium and Nickel increases mechanical strength and edge retention, and Manganese helps increase hardness, reduce structural wear, and makes for easy sharpening.
Japanese AUS-8 High Carbon Steel
BLADE FEATURE
Hand sharpened to a perfect 14-degree angle per side for clean, precise cuts and amazing edge-retention, the vacuum heat treated and nitrogen-cooled blades are crafted from high carbon Japanese AUS-8 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance. They have a Rockwell Hardness (HRC) of 56, providing maximum strength, flexibility, & blade edge durability. AUS-8 steel also incorporates vanadium, which further improves the blade’s durability and edge retention.
Carbon Fiber
HANDLE FEATURE
The G10 + Carbon Fiber handles are high-tech, military-grade, and astonishingly durable. The ingrained pattern changes as it catches the light (reminiscent of a holographic image). Its surface texture feels uniquely smooth and somewhat cool to the touch, like a combination of the best features of wood and steel. It is ergonomically designed for comfort and balance, has full tang strength (which means the blade extends all the way to the end of the handle) for a lifetime of safety and stability, and is heat, cold, moisture, and impact resistant.
