Double Edged – HAP-40 Steel

HAP40 is a powdered high-speed tool steel developed in Japan. It combines very high hardness with good toughness, giving outstanding edge retention and resistance to chipping. Its chromium content gives it good resistance to staining, though like any high-performance steel it should be dried after use.

This double-edged collection includes gyuto, kiritsuke, nakiri, santoku, sujihiki and petty knives with rosewood, triple ring ebony and ebony handles, some with lacquered nuri saya covers. See our HAP40 Series.
