Aoko Migaki is a small knife maker from Sakai in Japan. If you think that this knife resembles something you see from a certain other well-known knife maker in our range, then it is not quite the same - there is a connection.
The knife here is a 21 cm chef's knife in three layers of steel with a core of aogami-2, also known as blue-2. It is thus a fairly hard blade with high potential for sharpness - especially if you are interested in knife sharpening yourself and could have the courage to give it a "flat grind". It is of course also a blade that will patina, because aogami-2 is not stainless.
The handle is octagonal and made of bay wood by Studio Khii.

The knife, like all other good Japanese knives, cannot be machine washed, and as the blade is not stainless, we recommend that you pay close attention to rinsing and drying the blade very quickly after you have cut with it, otherwise it will start to oxidize.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
