The compact format works equally well on the board and in-hand, and the profile tapering toward the tip allows detailed work without forcing the cut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe steel is \u003cstrong\u003eSKD-11\u003c\/strong\u003e (SLD Steel), a semi-stainless tool steel developed by Hitachi Metals and adapted for cutlery by the forges of Sanjo, in Niigata Prefecture. With a chromium content of 11 to 13%, it offers better corrosion resistance than pure carbon steels while sharpening in a manner close to carbon: it responds to the stone in a reasonable number of passes and reaches a fine, stable edge. It develops little to no patina under typical kitchen conditions. Its hardness, between 61 and 64 HRC, provides good edge retention, with a corresponding sensitivity to lateral stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinse and dry after each use.
