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. This steel differs from Blue 1 in its carbon content, Blue 2 being slightly less. Due to the non stainless nature of this steel care must be taken to dry the knives properly after use. It is worth noting that this knife has been clad in stainless steel meaning only the exposed core edge will discolour making maintenance a lot easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFINISH: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.kitchenprovisions.co.uk\/collections\/nashiji\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: black;\"\u003eNashiji\u003c\/a\u003e or pear skin finish.
