Description & specifications
Teruyasu Fujiwara is a trained swordsmith, and makes some of the coolest knives in Japan. He is known for hardening his knives exceptionally hard, and they also cut like a dream. In addition, he was the first to start making a "finger notch" in his knives, so that when you pinch up on the knife, your middle finger rests safely and comfortably inside the finger notch.
The Denka series is built in 3 layers with Aogami Super as core steel, surrounded by stainless cladding. They are finished with a beautiful tsuchime/kurouchi finish on the top of the blade. The handle is western style, and made of black pakka wood.
Aogami Super is a carbon steel, and is in the category of so-called blue steel, and "Super" is the hardest of these alloys. Aogami Super is one of the carbon steels that can be hardened the hardest, and for this reason it keeps its sharpness for a really long time. However, it is also relatively easy to sharpen compared to stainless knives.
The knife is a Santoku and can be used for smaller pieces of meat, fish and vegetables.
