Soft stainless cladย aogami superย carbon steel with matte polished migaki finish with aย slightly convexย grind on the face of the blade. This factory forged series isย very affordable especially compared to the higher endย aogami super knives with more hand work in their forging and grinding. This treatment ofย aogami super can be sharpened at a variety of finishes depending to the users taste but it does great in the 4K finish range from our tests.ย
Aogami super is a carbon steel made by Yasugi Specialty Steels for Hitachi and like other aogami series steels (#2, #1 and super) is alloyed with tungsten with makes for good edge retention, the addition of vanadium in aogami super makes for more wear resistance and gives aogami super a long cutting duration.
