This is very similar to white paper steel but with tungsten and chromium added to it which helps with edge retention and slows down rusting. The difference between blue 1 and 2 is the amount of carbon present with 1 being the highest. Due to the non stainless nature of this steel care must be taken to dry the knives properly after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFINISH: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.kitchenprovisions.co.uk\/collections\/damascus\" style=\"color: black;\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDamascus\u003c\/a\u003e or suminagashi. This type of finish is made by creating a Kitaeji; which is produced by repeatedly folding\/stacking then compressing two different steels until they create a laminated pattern. This can then be manipulated in various ways to produce the maker’s desired pattern effect. This material is then clad around the core metal of the blade as an elaborate protective layer for the core steel - thus giving the knife a beautiful and striking appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHANDLE: Octagonal teak handle with a black buffalo horn ferrule\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLENGTH: 210mm or 240mm in length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMAKER: \u003ca style=\"color: black;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.kitchenprovisions.co.uk\/collections\/nakagawa\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eNakagawa Hamono\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBEST FOR: Those looking to own a knife from one of the newer talents coming from Sakai.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSAUNDERS SAYS: \u003cem\u003e\"\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.kitchenprovisions.co.uk\/collections\/damascus\" style=\"color: black;\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDamascus\u003c\/a\u003e pattern pattern has a lovely organic look to it.
